As a Canadian born and raised in Toronto, I have been privileged to grow up in a multicultural city that inspired curiosity about the world and the people in it. I jumped at the opportunity to attend medical school at the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland School of Medicine, because I wanted to experience a different way of life while studying medicine. At RCSI, I continued to realize my passion for caring for people of all ages, advocating for equitable treatment of patients, and both teaching and learning from other students. I felt that a career in Family Medicine would best allow me to care for my patients in a holistic nature while continually being inspired by the people that I work with. I feel overjoyed to be embarking on my dream career in Family Medicine at Franklin Square in Baltimore where I am excited to immerse myself in the culture and care for the community.
Outside of medicine, you will find me in a yoga class, reading a book, spending time outdoors, or dancing. My favorite things in life are spending time with my loved ones, particularly my dogs, and a good chai latte.
