Hi! Thanks for visiting my profile. I'm entering my first year of medical school. I want to be an academic physician after I graduate, working to innovatively improve healthcare systems, solve global health challenges, and reach health equity, especially in women's health areas! I'm academically interested in women's health, global health, languages, health policy, machine learning, technology, and more. Outside of academics, I love to kayak, rock climb, and dance!
