Personal
“I love teaching and practicing medicine in infectious diseases. I recharge with meditation and running, biking, or nearly anything that gets me outdoors. I really enjoy trying new things – I recently tried my hand at beekeeping for three years, and I enjoy experimenting with new recipes.”
