Favorite Aspects of Pathology: I love the complexity of it! There are so many different fields to explore, and it will never get boring. I also enjoy that pathology is scientific and, in some ways, artistic but also has incredibly high clinical relevancy.

Outside of Medicine: Outside of medicine I enjoy going for walks, reading, playing video games, baking all things sweet and savory, and most of all cuddling with my cat Chaplin.

Why I Like UAMS Pathology: I liked the idea of living in a medium-sized city with lots of beautiful nature all around. After experiencing the collegiality and familial feel during my interview, I just knew I could feel at home here. I am happy to say that gut feeling did not disappoint!

Favorite Activity in Arkansas: I still need to find that out, but probably going out and enjoying the vibrant Arkansas nature as well as exploring the different restaurants.

Favorite Restaurant in Little Rock: I have yet to explore most of them, but so far, I really like Lost Forty Brewing and Zaza’s.

If I weren’t a pathologist, I would be: Probably living on a farm with lots of different animals or working at a wildlife rehabilitation center.
