Medical School: Lewis Katz School of Medicine at Temple University
Undergraduate: Penn State University
Why MUSC: Throughout the application process, I searched for a program that supplemented outstanding clinical education with substantial child advocacy at the individual, community and state levels. MUSC checked those boxes, and after visiting Charleston, I became increasingly drawn to the region and brand new facilities at the Shawn Jenkins Children's Hospital. A fantastic interview day experience with Dr. Mills and some current residents helped solidify the decision, and it certainly didn't hurt to be trading in Philadelphia's weather for South Carolina sunshine!
