Why Emory EM?
I wanted to train somewhere that I felt embodied the ethos of emergency medicine and was dedicated to their patients and the broader community they served. Emory has a fantastic county hospital experience at Grady along with many other sites to provide robust clinical training combined with all the academic opportunities of Emory University. I am also honored to get to continue working in my home region here in the south!
Interest within EM?
EMS, extreme environment physiology, hyperbaric/dive medicine, critical care transport, and austere medicine
5- year plan
Hoping to go on to an EMS and/or hyperbaric fellowship! Planning to work in academic medicine.
What would you be doing if you weren’t in Emergency Medicine?
SAR Ranger and/or Firefighter
