What did you do before Medical School
: I was originally working on a career as a pilot, but switched to pre-med. After undergrad I took some gap years while working in a hospital and volunteering.
Best/worse job
Best job with the best bosses I’ve ever had was scooping ice cream in Hudson, NY. Craziest (but still great) was working in a hospital as a nurse’s aide. Worst job was being a waiter.
Why Maine Medical Center?
I LOVED the interview here, got a VERY good vibe from the residents and staff. Also, my gf and I absolutely LOVED Portland when we came to visit, lots of great food and things to do!
Celebrity I most resemble
Danny DeVito
