Why Emory EM?
I knew all along that I wanted to work with the medically underserved. I was really drawn to the fact that Emory gave me the opportunity to work at a true safety net hospital with the patient population I had always wanted to serve, but also had the academic resources to give me strong mentorship and introduce me to various opportunities in global health and other subspecialties in EM. I also am very interested in developing patient education tools and was very strongly supported when I brought my ideas to the administration here on interview day. I knew right off the bat that I would receive all the support and encouragement that I needed if I joined this program. Beyond that, the people here are truly just one-of-a-kind. Every person I met (and continue to meet!) is incredibly talented, works hard, and cares deeply. We genuinely have each other's backs. I truly can't imagine being anywhere else.
Interests in EM?
- Global health
- Health advocacy & policy
- Critical care
5-year plan
I honestly don't have one right now. I'm still finding my way and figuring out what exactly I want out of my career! I will probably be in some sort of fellowship or academic medicine. On the personal side, I hope that I'm spending more time with family, probably getting a second dog, and going on as many awesome trips/vacations as possible!
What would you be doing if you weren't in Emergency Medicine?
I would be a crazy plant lady with her own YouTube channel. Just kidding, but in all seriousness something with plants, probably landscape architecture.
