I am uber passionate about refugee health and human rights.

I <3 Michael Pollan “Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants.”

I am a singer.

I am a feminist.

I love music.

I am a huge foodie.

I love running.

I love cycling.

I love yoga.

I love helping people.

I love making people laugh.

I love smiling.

I love NPR.

I love documentaries.

I am a 3rd year medical school student taking a year off to do research in Geriatrics (older adult trauma), Ob/gyn, and Surgery. I'm travelling a lot this year (Baltimore, Ann Arbor, St. Louis, San Fran. repeat.)

I'm hoping to live a life filled with travels where I can help women, children, and the elderly everywhere I go.

Sarcasm, smiling, laughing, making others smile and laugh, and giving massages, singing (in a chorus/group)

My smile. If you are funny or even if you aren't my laugh is pretty unique and pretty contagious. My hair is pretty fantastic too...as is my jaw line...and my great sense of style.

I would end up writing a book in and of itself if I were to write everything, but I really do love just about everything I come across or at least have an appreciation for...

...especially Iron & Wine, The XX, Mumford & Sons, Broken Social Scene, Bruce Springsteen, Adele, Justin Timberlake, & 2pac
...Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Modern Family, Arrested Development, The Wire, Homeland, Game of Thrones, The Newsroom
...In Defense of Food, Eating Animals, The Alchemist, The Zahir, Cutting for Stone, The Emperor of All Maladies, any poetry by Rumi

saving the world, how to save the world, how to make people's day better, and if all else fails, then I just try and work on myself and make my own day better.

either at the hospital working, or going out to dinner at a fancy new restaurant, or at the movies. If not out, then staying in and cooking up something new and watching a movie at home with friends.
