I finished med school in 2009 and then moved across the country to do residency in general surgery at UCSF, where I graduated in 2016 then stayed for a year as an acute care surgery attending. The most recent big move was just this summer, to Chicago, where I'm doing a fellowship in colorectal surgery. I'll be looking for a faculty job soon, so I'll let you know where I end up! Fun trivia tidbit: in homage to the fabulous teachers in my past(!), I conduct surgical education research (how to teach better), got a master's in education at Berkeley during residency, and was the most junior faculty at UCSF to win the resident teaching award in 2017.
