Medical Student
Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine

I am a third-year medical student at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine interested in general surgery. My research interests include surgical outcomes, health disparities, and health economics. From a broader perspective, I am interested in leveraging health sytems and policy to address inequities in healthcare and promote optimal outcomes for patients.
