Year of Study: MS4
Why wellness is important to me: It can be easy to forget to take time for yourself when medical school is so hectic. Even so, taking care of my own well-being will make me better able to care for my future patients, community, and self. Wellness is so important for medical students (and doctors) in the long-term!
Why I’m on the committee: I’m always excited to support my peers and enable them to do more than I can alone! I’ve loved contributing to my class community through various initiatives and enjoy finding opportunities for humanism during all years of the medical school experience.
Fun fact: I love to cook! Things I have made from scratch include dumplings, gnocchi, eggplant parmesan, chocolate cake with raspberry jam and chocolate frosting, fried rice wrapped in egg, etc.
