Started moving Eastward for a master’s degree in Colorado, medical school in Iowa, and residency in New Mexico and now fellowship in Utah. And thank goodness, I love the mountains! Mostly for aesthetic reasons. I do enjoy snowboarding, spending time with my family including wife, 2 children and our dog.

Why did you decide on Utah? The university of Utah is a great learning institution with an excellent faculty and a great group of fellows. The people in the program make this a great place to be and work. Additionally, Utah has excellent activities including mountains (both aesthetically pleasing and offer hiking, biking, fishing and excellent snow sports [there are like 6+ ski places with 1.5 hours]).
