I’m currently an M4 at Harvard Medical School applying to pediatrics residency. I’m originally from Brooklyn, New York, and graduated from Harvard in 2017, where I studied biomedical engineering and lived in Kirkland House (K-House best house!). After college, I spent a year at the University of Cambridge before completing my PhD in medical engineering and medical physics, where I worked with Professor Ellen Roche at MIT on drug delivery devices and cardiovascular simulators. I’m now finishing medical school and hope to pursue a career in pediatric cardiology. I live in Boston’s South End with my husband, Matt, and our cat, Mapo!
