Background

As a health and physical education teacher in the past, I developed an appreciation for how knowledge and lifestyle choices influence overall wellness. Over time, I realized I wanted to play a broader role in diagnosing, managing, and preventing illness, which inspired me to pursue a career as a doctor. I’m passionate about educating and empowering people to stay healthy, and I love hearing the life stories of my patients.

Life and Hobbies
