To my EMRA family,

I’m excited to address you and work to earn your vote for Secretary/Editor-in-Chief. I’m a current PGY-2 at UF-Jacksonville with goals to pursue a medical education fellowship and academic medicine.

As a prior editor for SheMD, I’ve had the opportunity to learn to advocate for and facilitate underrepresented voices to be heard. I am committed to seeking out and amplifying these voices to mold the emergency physicians of tomorrow. I’ve also worked with TrueLearn question bank as a content editor for 3 years, and I will continue to prioritize the publication of factually correct, clinically significant, meaningful articles that we can carry into our practice.

I’ve also had the pleasure of writing myself—with prior publications in Doximity, MedForums, White Coat Investor, and SheMD. To me, this isn’t simply a position, but something I truly enjoy dedicating time to as a hobby.

Lastly, I promise to bring a lighthearted energy to the position—an energy fueled by my husky-lab mix Lily, Taylor Swift, NASCAR, and Pepsi.

My vision for EM Resident is to cultivate a group of voices that truly represent the culture of our specialty. It would be an honor to serve you in this endeavor.
