Home Town: Laredo, Texas
When I study medicine, I most enjoying learning about: all the different ways that one disease/illness can present itself
Things that make me unique are: humor is my coping mechanism for almost everything, I’ve been to the Harry Potter studio in London, and I love spicy food (and can make a mean homemade salsa)
I’m not only a doctor, I also like to: be the best dog mom to my dog, watch Aggie football, try new restaurants, travel, listen to live music, and spend nights out with friends and family.
To get myself motivated I think of: the life of luxury I need to give my dog, lol

I chose the UAMS Pediatrics Residency Program because it’s wonderful and…: everyone I met on my interview day made me feel so comfortable and welcomed. All of the residents seemed genuinely happy. Plus, ACH is an incredible facility.
