Second Year Fellow
Residency
University of Mississippi Medical Center
Why did you choose UAB for your fellowship?
I really enjoyed my interview experience at UAB. Everyone was so welcoming, and I knew I would enjoy having this group as my co-workers for 3 years. Some of the attendings I interviewed with even offered to provide guidance for future decision points in my career if I didn't choose to do my fellowship training here. Overall, I felt very "at home". I also knew I would get excellent clinical training and have an abundance of research opportunities to choose from. Now, one year into my fellowship training, I feel confident I made the right decision for me.
Hobbies/Special Interests?
SEC sports, baking, reading, travelling.
Fun Facts
I have an engineering undergrad degree. I've made it through college, med school, residency and now first year of fellowship without drinking a cup of coffee. I am always cold, and since it's especially chilly in the hospital, I kept an electric blanket in our fellows workroom on the floor for most of the year.
