I am from Limerick, Ireland where I grew up and did all of my schooling. When I was younger I played a lot of rugby but, over the years, I began transitioning into more mountain-based activities. I have a passion for anything involving mountains including rock climbing, mixed/ice climbing, skiing etc. I wanted to become a doctor since I was young and along the way I found my home in the ED. Even though I took a rather convoluted route getting here, I could not be happier chasing the ultimate dream of combining work with passion.
Medical Areas of Interest
Critical care, EMS, wilderness medicine, flight medicine.
I applied to Utah because it fit perfectly with both my professional ambitions and recreational passions. When I interviewed, even though it was online, I knew I met people on my wavelength. The residents and faculty were so happy and were even talking about going skiing straight after the interviews! I am so excited to become part of the team.
