Your goal as an EMRA leader: My goal is to help create and provide resources to allow for equal opportunities for all medical students to pursue careers in EM. I have been fortunate to receive a lot of truly amazing mentorship throughout my pre-med and medical school careers. Now, I hope I can now pay it forward to my fellow EMRA student members.

What is the best advice you've ever received?
Time goes by at the same rate whether you're doing something you love or hate. It's never too late to do something you love.

Last non-textbook I read: "Dreamland: The True Tale of America's Opiate Epidemic" by Sam Quinones
