Interests & Career Goals

Clinically I want to work with patients with both medical and psychiatric needs, particularly in acute care or inpatient settings. I’m interested in medical education, psychotherapy, and how systems-level factors—like health policy, structural inequity, and interprofessional collaboration—shape patient care.

Favorite Pastimes

Reading, hiking, playing pickleball, exploring new coffee shops, and spending time with my Yorkie

Strengths of the Program

Duke felt like the rare combination of intellectual rigor, clinical excellence, warmth, and genuine interdisciplinary collaboration I was looking for. I wanted a program that would help me grow not just as a clinician, but also as a systems thinker and advocate. Duke accomplishes that with strong med-psych mentorship, outstanding clinical training, and a deep commitment to equity.
