What attracted you to this program?
I had the opportunity to work with the FM program as a medical student and I really enjoyed the laid back atmosphere. Everyone here is very friendly and genuinely excited about teaching which makes for a great learning environment.

What is living in Springfield like for you?
Springfield has a lot of diversity for being such a small town, which makes it such a great place to raise children. It's also the state capitol so there's a lot of good politics! And there's like 3 Starbucks, enough said.

What are your future plans?
Survive residency :)

What will your future practice be?
My plans are always changing. I want to do it all!
