Bio

I am an aspiring physician currently pursuing an MS-MD degree at Drexel University College of Medicine. Raised in a studio apartment in Queens, NY, I overcame financial challenges to follow my dreams. When I'm not studying, you'll find me in Philadelphia dance studios, belly dancing and rehearsing for shows. Dance has been a therapeutic outlet for me, shaping my goal to work with underserved communities by integrating dance into my medical practice.
