Why you love Tulane IM: I love Tulane IM because of the people and the way they care for all those around them. This city and and these patients are home to me, and I love that our residents and attendings go above and beyond to help the patients on a regular basis. They volunteered to work and help the city (that is not home to many) during Hurricane Ida. Lastly, they lookout for each other every day and make it fun to go to work.

Favorite thing about NOLA: You never get bored! There is always ALWAYS something to do. Whether its a festival, a concert or just kayaking on Bayou St. John, you'll always have something to look forward to on your days off.

Hobbies: Baking! I'm not very good at it and the middle might always be a little doughy, but it is such a great stress relief.
