Hometown: Pocahontas, Arkansas

Medical School: University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences

Why did you choose UAMS for residency? Since I did medical school here, I had plenty of time to get to know the faculty and see what the residency program was like. I liked the close relationships between residents and with faculty.

Favorite thing about living in Little Rock? The amount of outdoors things to do.

What do you want to do with your life? I’m interested in primary care and cardiology.

What do you do outside of the hospital to relax/have fun?  I like to go to Rocktown Distillery with my friends or hang out around the firepit at one of our houses.

If you weren’t a doctor, what would you be? I think I would have pursued architecture or engineering.

Fav show to binge watch? It was The Office until it left Netflix, but lately it has been Survivor.

Fun fact about yourself that not a lot of people know? I don’t get a lot time for it now, but I love hunting and fishing!

Anything else you want the world/future applicants to know about yourself? I am super excited to be here and love Little Rock! Feel free to connect with me on Twitter or Instagram if you have any questions about the program or the city!
