Who are the giants in your life that have inspired, assisted, encouraged, or set
an example for your journey into medicine?

My siblings! I’m lucky to have three older siblings in medicine: an orthopedic surgeon, a dentist, and a neurosurgery tech. Watching them grow into their
careers has helped me navigate the tough journey of becoming a healthcare worker. Countless times, I’ve seen them use their expertise to advocate for friends and family members in times of need. They inspire me every day to keep working hard, so I can one day do the same for them in return!
