Why I chose 海外吃瓜: The main reason I chose 海外吃瓜 was due to the time I spent here as a student. I was able to see first-hand what a positive environment it was when it came to learning and becoming a better pharmacist. All the preceptors and staff are welcoming and willing to help you learn. 海外吃瓜 is also in such a beautiful area with tons of outdoor activities, which made my decision much easier.

Why I chose 海外吃瓜: I was looking for a 300-bed plus community hospital with a large patient population that would expose me to many different disease states. As well as a welcoming team of pharmacists to facilitate my residency year. Coming from the land of 10,000 lakes, Minnesota, I did need to live close to a lake. I found all that and more with 海外吃瓜!
Professional Interests: Emergency Medicine, Critical Care, and Internal Medicine
Personal Interests: I enjoy reading, fitness/weight training, music, and spending time with my dog Luna.
