Hiking, running, weightlifting, biking, skiing

Microsurgery, autologous breast reconstruction, supermicrosurgery

Why UW?

I chose UW for training because of its volume, location, pedigree and mostly importantly, for its excellent staff and collegial environment.

What advice do you have for incoming interns?

Read as much as possible, work hard, be punctual and open-minded

What do you like best about living in Seattle?

I have yet to move in, but I’m hoping the best part of the city will be its people and proximity to the national parks!
