Program: St. George's University School of Medicine

Your goal as an EMRA leader: To represent medical students from all across the globe who share a passion for emergency medicine and help bring their visions to life!

If I weren't an emergency physician, I would be: A circus performer! I train and perform on aerial silks, hammock and lyra (hoop) in my spare time. :)

Favorite life hack for night shifts: Waking up a bit early to hit the gym before night shift is a great energy booster that helps keep me going all night long without having to rely on excess caffeine!
