Why did you choose to become part of Michigan State University Neurology?

Sparrow/MSU Neurology has a great reputation, both academically and patient care-wise.  There seems to be a great amount of respect amongst the residents and between faculty and residents. I believe I will see a lot of pathology while with MSU Neurology, as well as learn how to become an excellent clinician within the field of neurology. Also, I had a wonderful month when I rotated and I knew that this was where I would be happiest and learn the most.

If you were not a doctor, what would you have chosen as a career?

Psychologist

Extracurricular interests and activities:

Reading, DVR television shows (I can’t watch commercials anymore), movies (especially scary movies), riding my bike, hanging out with friends/family
