I am passionate about travelling to new places and immersing myself into its environment, culture, language, traditions, and community. I am particularly interested in learning and discovering connections between various health-related fields, including human and veterinary medicine, biological and clinical research, epidemiology, global health, and socioeconomic/cultural disparities. My international and domestic experiences have broadened my knowledge on how to provide a holistic and interdisciplinary approach of care for my community.
