Why MaineHealth Maine Medical Center?
Maine Medical Center has great community oriented full spectrum training with a unique blend of urban and rural medicine. The people I met were all kind, genuine, and enthusiastic, and there was a clear dedication to great patient care. Then when I visited Portland, it felt like I was coming home and I knew it was the right place for me.

What did you do before medical school?
I worked as an EMT, mostly transporting people to their scheduled medical appointments, where I fell in love with continuity care. Then I converted an ambulance into a camper and travelled the east coast from Atlanta to the Blue Ridge Parkway to Niagara.
