A few things about me are that I have my pilot's license, I have been known to sleep talk in another language, and that I may have a slight addiction to podcasts.
Why UCSF Fresno?
I wanted to find a strong program that demonstrated diverse pathology, and in my short time here I can certainly say it hasn't disappointed. Another aspect of a program that I was looking for was one that values resident well-being . I felt that during my interview day at UCSF Fresno, the overwhelmingly positive attitudes and sentiments from the residents made me feel I would be well supported throughout my time here.
What are your career interests (fellowships, etc.)?
