San Ysidro Health
I am a 2nd year internal medicine resident at San Ysidro/Scripps Mercy Health in San Diego, California. I completed my bachelors and masters degrees in bioengineering at UC Riverside and attended medical school at Western University in Pomona, California. I am currently very much interested in pulmonary and critical care medicine, and am planning to pursue fellowship upon completion of my residency. In particular, I am currently working on multiple research projects, one of which is with point-of-care ultrasound in patient's admitted with congestive heart failure. I am also working on another study examining the utility of MRSA surveillance in MRSA pneumonias to guide antibiotic therapy, in settings with high prevalence of MRSA. Outside of medicine, I spend my free time as a "foodie," in which I am part of Yelp Elite and enjoy taking part in the Yelp community. I also avidly enjoy basketball, both playing and watching, and am a lifelong Laker fan.
