ACADEMIC AND PROFESSIONAL JOURNEY
As early as I can remember, I dreamed of being a doctor. After EMHS, my family’s West Virginia roots drew me to WVU’s Honors College where I pursued a degree in Biology and minor in Sociology. I then attended Edward Via College of Osteopathic Medicine (VCOM). Currently, I am second year family medicine resident at Fairfax Family Practice in Fairfax, VA.
My mom shares that at three years old, I began writing my dad “prescriptions” after a surgery.
