What brought you to the U.S.?

I moved to the US for good back in 2017, while I was still a med-student and flew back and forth to complete the rest of my education. I've never been to Michigan before moving for residency. Honestly, Michigan seemed like an adventure, a change compared to all my years in the South (my family's from Georgia!). Hence, I packed my bags, moved to a state I was completely new to, and the first thing I did, was get charmed by the sorcery that is the sunsets here. There's way too much explore in Michigan, way too much to appreciate, also too little time. But fingers crossed!!

Why did you choose your specialty?

Who didn't like Sherlock Holmes, growing up? Well that's what I chose to do! To sleuth is a big part of my job!

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

Try to find a hill, or a beach, or better both.

What do you like most about Hurley so far?

I'm still really new to Hurley. I'm still discovering what this place has to offer, and, so far, it's been good. Like every new place, it's going to take time to fit in and aso bring something of your own to the table.

What inspires you?

The wheel of life and death, and the value of every second that passes by, is what pushes me to keep going.

What do you miss most about home?

FOOOOOD!
