Hometown: Omaha

What do you do to stay balanced? I have a mission of making medical school as fun as I can, so I try to do spontaneous activities whenever possible to break up the routine of school. I also feel that staying connected with family and friends from high school and college in addition to my UNMC friends helps me to stay balanced. Lastly, making time for my faith life keeps me grounded. And napping too. I love a good nap! 

Three things people may not know about me:  

  • I’ve done four triathlons.  
  • I worked for Douglas County helping with property valuation protests for five summers.
  • My best friend and I successfully completed a 2.5 year-long prank in college.
