Why did you choose to become part of MSU Neurology?
During my interview with the neuro-ophthalmology department at MSU, I was very impressed by the faculty's commitment to mentorship and the unique opportunity to gain valuable clinical experience with additional opportunities to be involved in exciting research in the field. Participating in this fellowship will undoubtedly be an invaluable experience and contribute to my growth as a clinician.
If you were not a doctor, what would you have chosen as a career?
If I were not a doctor, I likely would have had a career as an artist or pastry chef.
