Department of Surgery

Hometown: Bowie, Maryland 

Undergraduate: University of Rhode Island

Medical School: Howard University College of Medicine 

Why did you choose Brown:

When looking for the best fit for me, I wanted a program that prided itself in producing excellent academic surgeons, had residents that were happy, as well as faculty that loved to teach.  During the interview season and even now as I am interacting with my colleagues, I realize that I have really cool co-interns and seniors that care about my success. I am also interested in Cardiac Surgery and there has been an excellent track record of residents matching through the program. 

Favorite things about Providence and RI:

The summer vibes, beaches, food

Plans for the future:

Cardiothoracic Surgery Fellowship, with a career in transplant or congenital cardiothoracic surgery.
