Why did you choose VUMC Pathology: The residents and attendings are kind, friendly and patient. I wanted to come to a program that centers learning and growth for residents. Senior residents and fellows routinely teach and help others. Nashville has beautiful outdoor spaces and pleasant weather year round. 

Fun fact about yourself: I play the euphonium (tuba-like instrument) in a wind ensemble in Nashville. I sailed up the coast of Maine for a month.
