I am an Internal Medicine resident physician at the University of Rochester Medical Center (URMC), interested in pursuing a career in cardiology. I earned my MD from Drexel University College of Medicine and graduated magna cum laude from UC San Diego with a B.S. in Human Biology. Academically, I has authored 16 abstracts and peer-reviewed publications spanning topics such as heart failure and interventional cardiology, metabolic health, and Alzheimer’s Disease, and have presented his work at national conferences. My academic interests are in digital health innovation and physician entrepreneurship.
My passion for mentorship and teaching stems from my roles as a piano, violin, and dance instructor in high school. In medical school, I served as a neuroanatomy TA and student ambassador, where I conducted student-led interviews with applicants and delivered formal feedback directly to the admissions committee–an experience that gave me a rare dual perspective on what admissions committees are actually evaluating. Since then, I have independently, and now through Med School Insiders, helped several students get accepted into medical school, helping with primary and secondary applications, personal statements, and mock interviews.
I have also been tutoring high school and college students for 10+ years, with expertise in human biology, molecular biology, chemistry, English, essay writing, and application prep. Additionally, I have taught piano and violin since 2016, having trained through ABRSM with distinction ratings; I have worked with over 20 students ages 6–18.
My philosophy is simple: help students present themselves authentically and compellingly. I believe a strong grasp of fundamentals and consistent exposure to practice questions are key to success. I use them to teach students how to approach problems methodically, identify key information, and apply recall-based reasoning. My ultimate goal is to help students build lasting habits that improve both scores and confidence.
