Excited to be joining y’all for my first year as a resident tutor! I was born and raised in Thousand Oaks, California. I stayed in SoCal for undergrad and moved to NYC for my gap year before starting medical school at HMS! Outside of medicine, I love weightlifting, soaking up the sun (when it’s around in Boston), dancing, and just having a good ol' time with friends. Looking forward to getting to know everyone! - ## Person Categories [Resident Tutors](/person-categories/resident-tutors)
