Pediatric anesthesiology, like all current fellowships in anesthesiology, takes one year to complete. Including medical school, this is my ninth year at UNMC.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n<strong>What do you like the most about your training program:<\/strong><br \/>\nThe people are what make our program great. The attendings are supportive and knowledgeable. They work to challenge and engage us clinically. The staff at Children&rsquo;s (especially in the operating room, pre-op and the post-surgical recovery areas) are incredibly kind, insightful and excellent patient advocates. They have taught me a lot. It has been a pleasure working with and getting to know them.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n<strong>What challenges do you foresee in graduate medical education in the future: <\/strong><br \/>\nI think the future of medicine is bright and vast but offers the unique challenge of balancing medical education and administrative tasks without compromising clinical experience.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n<strong>List some accomplishments that you are proud of: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Traveling to Rwanda for a global health initiative where our team completed 33 partial thyroidectomies;<\/li>\n<li>Serving as a resident representative on the Graduate Medical Education Committee; and<\/li>\n<li>Being elected chief resident.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Tell us three things about you that others may not know:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>I once dressed as the Nesquik&reg; bunny (for a job) and got to ride on a Zamboni.<\/li>\n<li>Cauliflower is my least favorite vegetable.<\/li>\n<li>And most importantly, I have an incredible little girl who is almost four months old.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div style=\"display: none;\"><a
