Future plans: Still open-minded to what kind of surgeon I want to be but I want to be an educator, teacher, and/or mentor to residents or medical students. I am currently interested in colorectal, MIS, and surgical oncology. 

Why UMASS?: Diverse, broad scope of surgical subspecialties, Level 1/tertiary care center in the area, supportive academic staff, peers, and culture, a well-established support system for residents, nice young vibe area and places to visit around.
