I am so thankful for the opportunity to return to Franklin Square Family Health Center and serve its community. I was raised on a farm in Westminster, Maryland. Although physicianship is new to my family, compassion, empathy, and intentional listening were instilled in me throughout my childhood. I am thankful to have had the opportunity to attend University of Maryland: College Park for undergraduate studies in Physiology and Neurobiology. During this time, I became interested in health equity and understanding our communities' systemic causes of diseases. I continued this work during medical school at Georgetown University School of Medicine- finding my passion for primary care during a 6 month rotation at Franklin Square Family Health Center- and finding my passion for advocacy with various population health, justice-involved health, and racial justice initiatives. I hope to learn from each and every patient during my time here and look forward to becoming a part of the Baltimore community.
