Goals and interests

Career goal

Upon graduation and passing my board exam, I intend to practice medicine in a medically underserved area, such as the Rio Grande Valley in Texas. The fields I have been interested in the most, so far, are dermatology and emergency medicine.

Outside the classroom

My hobbies include dancing, poetry writing, and cooking! All of these are very therapeutic for me, and each provide an artistic outlet when I am overwhelmed with medical and scientific studies.
