Where are you from?  Chicago

What do you love most about living in NYC? Ease of walking/biking/riding the subway everywhere. Never a dull moment with the different shows, events, restaurants, etc going on. Love being close to friends from multiple walks of life.

What drew you to Cornell Radiology? The culture and people. From the first pre-interview dinner I got a sense of the sense of "home" with the program and how close residents are to one another and the attendings/administration. Love that the program is so responsive to resident feedback and valuing wellness in addition to high quality training.

What are some of your favorite hobbies outside of work? Running in Central Park/West Side Highway or other paths in the city. Pickleball with fellow residents -- love a good Tuesday night game after a long day of work. Travel and hiking adventures, I've been to more than a third of the US national parks so far!

Do you have any kids/pets? No pets or kids...yet!

Dream vacation? Hut to hut hike around the Dolomites in Italy ending with endless pasta and wine in an Italian vineyard.

Go-to Karaoke song? Don't Stop Believin' by Journey, every Karaoke night needs to end with this.

Favorite radiology sign? Mt. Fuji sign in neuroradiology showing tension pneumocephalus. This is a recent favorite since I just went to Japan and saw the magnificence of Mount Fuji so now, I have a true appreciation for the sign.

Fellowship Match: Neuroradiology at Weill Cornell
