Why did you choose UA EM?

The faculty and residents are truly a family. Working here is like hanging out with friends, which fosters a great learning environment. We have strong training in both community and tertiary academic settings with rural opportunities as well. I find the integrated Spanish didactics to be a great way for us to connect with our community.

The beautiful outdoors, incredibly talented local music community, and the various local coffee/tea shops. 

What are your non-medical goals during residency?

Release a song every few months, stay healthy, and improve my Spanish.
