Why did you choose the University of Kentucky?

My whole family is here, either works or study at UK. Also, I did an observership and research in the department of pathology at UK for several months which made me fall in love with this environment, with amazing and diverse faculty, residents and staff. The attendings here are all friendly, non-judgmental and very supportive, most importantly they value our individual professional growth mentally and physically. The PAs and other staff are highly skilled and very helpful, and the workloads and educational goals are well designed.

What are your hobbies?

Painting, gardening, swimming, binge watching TV shows.
