What do you like to do in Houston? Some of my favorite experiences in Houston so far have been watching Mutton Bustin’ for the first time at the Rodeo and going to Pete’s Dueling Piano Bar (which was not at all what I was expecting)!

When I’m in the mood to unwind, I like taking walks around Hermann Park or along the Buffalo Bayou.
What do you like about our program? I really appreciate the camaraderie in our program — it’s something you can feel both in and out of the hospital. The residents and faculty are incredibly down-to-earth and genuinely approachable, which makes it such a supportive environment to learn in.
Hobbies? Spending time with friends and family, dancing, hiking, watching TV, eating ice cream.
Fun Fact: If I wasn’t a doctor, I’d be a contestant on The Amazing Race (but who knows, maybe I’ll still do it)!
