I chose Valley Health because of its strong sense of community, supportive learning environment, and unique opportunity to train in a new Internal Medicine residency program. Being part of a growing program is especially exciting, as it allows me to contribute to its development, shape its culture, and grow alongside it. I am especially drawn to Internal Medicine for its complexity and the chance to build meaningful, long-term relationships with my patients. Having lived in Virginia for many years, I feel a strong responsibility to serve this region and its patients. In my free time, I enjoy crocheting coasters and hats, playing the piano, baking fresh bread, and voice acting. Exploring new cities, hiking, and spending time with family and friends are also important to me. Additionally, I host a medical podcast where I share practical clinical insights and highlight physicians' experiences, combining my passions for education and storytelling.
