Your goal as an EMRA leader: My goal as an EMRA leader is to promote connection between students, and to both inspire and equip others to be effective patient advocates.

What is the best advice you've ever received?
The best advice I've ever received is a quote my dad shares with me when I need some encouragement: “Formulate and stamp indelibly on your mind a mental picture of yourself as succeeding. Hold this picture tenaciously. Never permit it to fade. Your mind will seek to develop the picture... Do not build up obstacles in your imagination.” - Norman Vincent Peale

If I weren't an emergency physician, I would be: A trauma surgeon

Last non-textbook I read: "Everything's Eventual," a collection of short stories by Stephen King
