I was born in Toledo Ohio and grew up in Andover, Massachusetts. I went to Georgia Tech with an interest in Biomedical Engineering, and completed my degeree while conducting influenza research at the CDC. I spent a year supplementing anesthesia research at Beth Israel in Boston with an internship at a medical robotics startup at Noah medical in the Bay with a continued interest in advancing technological innovations in medicine to improve patient care. I am completing a full-covered extra year in Biomedical Informatics with a specific interest in AI to conduct further research of AI in medicine. Outside of medical school I enjoy playing volleyball.
