Why did you choose South Campus FM residency? The patient population, the unique location of the hospital, the global and rural opportunities, and the leadership all stand out amongst everything else that drew me to South Campus. Truly a unique program and I’m stoked to get to train here for the next three years!

What do you love most about Tucson? I could wax endlessly about what’s awesome about Tucson, but honestly, the taco scene is outta control here. So good.

Tell us about your family (including pets!) I’m third generation Angeleno (from Los Angeles). Grew up in a Jew-ish household. Mom’s a doc. Sister’s a teacher. Three rambunctious but so-freaking-cute nieces and nephew.

Tell us some fun facts about you!
1: I love learning and thinking about the intersection of technology and healthcare. In my past life, I worked in healthcare technology startups and hope to use my experience in my future career as a family doc.
2: I’m currently trying to be a plant-dad with mixed results. Turns out plant-parenthood is harder than it looks!
3: I’ve recently been starting to road bike, learn to golf and play tennis.
