Why UNMC?: I love UNMC for a few reasons. Having done medical school in Omaha, I know the area well and absolutely love it. More importantly, during my 4th year of residency I was lucky enough to spend a month with the Plastic Surgery team and absolutely loved it.

Hometown: St. Louis, Missouri
Why UNMC: After living on the East Coast for 10 years, I was elated to have the opportunity to return to the Midwest. UNMC offers an exceptional combination of high-volume, complex reconstructive and microsurgery cases, hand and craniofacial surgery, as well as general plastic surgery and aesthetic cases.
From the beginning, it was clear that the attendings are deeply invested in the development and well-being of their residents. They foster a supportive environment while challenging us each day to expand our knowledge, refine our skills, and grow as surgeons. The culture is truly incredible, and UNMC has quickly come to feel like a second home.
The breadth and complexity of the clinical experience, coupled with the graduated autonomy entrusted to residents, will provide me with the foundation to develop into a competent, confident, and well-rounded plastic surgeon.
