Why Ventura? So many reasons! I am excited to be back in Southern California close to my family and the ocean. I love that Community Memorial prioritizes training Dos, as well as providing opportunities to practice osteopathic manipulative medicine. This program fosters community, and I have been able to connect with the residents easily. Various opportunities are offered to the residents, and they are encouraged to pursue their own interests within medicine. This was my favorite program.

Next Adventure: Now that I am living in California, my husband and I plan to visit as many West Coast national parks as we can this upcoming year.

Medical Interests: Urgent Care, Family Medicine Clinic, Osteopathic manipulative medicine
