At MetroHealth, I’ve had the opportunity to train in an environment that balances high-quality clinical education with a strong sense of camaraderie. I love my co-residents! We support each other, learn together, and genuinely have fun along the way. Things get competitive during our Jeopardy games and sometimes we coordinate our scrub colors just to look cute. It’s a place that reminds me every day that medicine doesn’t have to be all serious to be meaningful.

Of course, I love Cleveland because it’s where I’m from and where my family still lives. But what I enjoy most is the chance to experience all four seasons. In the summer, I like spending time near the water or on outdoor patios with friends. Fall brings vibrant orange leaves and some emotional Sundays watching the Browns. Winter’s snow brightens the city, and the Cavs give us hope that we do have great sports teams. When spring arrives, it pulls us out of hibernation, so we can enjoy fun activities like comedy shows at Hilarities, Guardians baseball games, or TopGolf.
