Course 9

Biography

I did not begin fantasizing about MIT until May of my senior year in high school. In fact, I never wanted to be an engineer or a programmer. I had even sent my deposit to another school before I changed my mind and decided to come to MIT.

And still, MIT was the right fit for me. I met my wife. I worked on an ambulance. I hosted a radio show. I got into medical school (barely). And then I graduated Course 9 in 2012.

I completed my OBGYN residency in 2016. After four years as a general OBGYN, I am now a fellow in gynecologic oncology in the Washington DC area.
