Why VUMC:  I chose Vanderbilt PM&R because of its broad training opportunities, people, and culture. The program focuses on growth, encouraging collaboration with other specialties and supporting residents as they find their own path in physiatry. During my interview day, the supportive culture shined through in every conversation, and I knew Vandy was the right fit. I’ve always heard great things about Nashville and I’m excited to be part of this growing community and to explore the city!

Outside Interests and Hobbies:  Anything that will get me outside and allow me to spend time with my family - hiking, camping, backpacking, and snowboarding. When I find the time, I also love throwing pottery.
