When and why did you come to Michigan?

June 18, 2021. To join my residency program.

Why did you choose your specialty?

I can find everything I am looking for while being a pediatrician. I LOVE communicating with kids and their families, and I feel that I have a good understanding of their feelings and concerns, which provides me a great sense of satisfaction!

Family

My dad passed away when I was 16. I have a great mom who raised me up and spent all her efforts to get my father’s wish of being a well-educated person come true! I have three inspiring brothers and two lovely sisters. Helana, who is now 8, is my favorite niece.

When you're not working, what do you do for fun?

I usually hang out with friends. I like water sports and swim regularly. I also like kayaking and snorkeling.

What do you love about the mid-Michigan area?

I like how quiet it is!
