ABOUT ME

I asked a few friends for help in describing me. "A wonderful human being, who is smart, fun, and a great friend." Another laughed for a few minutes and then said I had "a little bit of integrity." Growing up I used Sporty Italian, which I still enjoy. I think all of them are of some use but as a traveler and host I'd use another description. I am relentlessly curious, friendly, respectful, and flexible. I love cultures, learning, and I regret that I have failed learning 3 languages.

Interests

Reading, learning, and talking. I am a Medical Resident in Houston I plan on specializing in Hematology/Oncology which a sub-specialty of internal medicine. I was a history major in school and I played club baseball. I think those 3 things do a good job of summarizing my interests. I like cultures, people, and sports.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I love people watching. My favorite place to do that is the Damascus Gate in Jerusalem. There are so many different kinds of people all doing what they need to do in such a small area that sitting back and watching them go is about as good of an experience as there is. I am also constantly amazed by the kindness of strangers and I love that people can be so helpful. It really is inspiring to me.
