CURRENT MISSION: Survive residency

I am almost finished with my medical residency and starting to focus my training on palliative care. When I'm not at work, I love to meet new people, watch sports, and hang out outside.

PHILOSOPHY

My dad always told me "the world is exceptionally mediocre" - I like to have low expectations of people and be pleasantly surprised.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm always looking to meet fellow travelers at heart.
