Why Utah Pediatric cardiology? This is a busy program with amazing mentors, a strong research infrastructure, and located in my favorite place!
What is your favorite part about our program? I like that the people here are invested in teaching and that everyone is so approachable and helpful
What is your favorite part about living in Salt Lake City? I like having a full 4 seasons and enjoying exploring the city and surrounding mountains
What cool research/advocacy/education/scholarly work are you participating in? I am currently hoping to find a research project that fits my interests but am also helping with a QI project about feedback for fellows.
What has been a standout rotation or teaching experience you've been part of as a fellow? I loved my cath rotation because I learned a TON, the attendings were great teachers, and the procedure part was also super interesting and exciting
What is something you didn't know before coming to Utah that you wish you did? I have always been here so I will say that this place is addictive and nearly impossible to leave!
What are your plans following fellowship? I am not 100% sure yet but I think I would like to be an attending at a teaching/academic hospital and get to take care of interesting patients.
What made you decide to come to Utah? The people, the city, the learning environment, and the opportunities!
