I was born and raised in Toronto, and completed my undergraduate degree in Physiology at the University of Toronto. Through my summer research in kidney transplantation, I was inspired by what a magnitude of difference a few hours of work in the OR could make, and this has driven me towards a surgical career. I moved to Kingston for medical school at Queen’s University, where I was fortunate to meet a very supportive group of urologists who helped cemented my interest in urology, and provided me with endless encouragement and guidance throughout my clerkship years. I had an incredible elective experience at VGH, and was impressed with how broadly proficient the residents were. I quickly felt like I was already part of the team, and a I was very happy to find out I would be part of the DUS family. Since moving to Vancouver, it has been a busy but exciting start to residency. I am very much looking forward to working with the group here at UBC in the coming years, and continuing to explore all that this beautiful province has to offer.
