Well, it's official - I'm going to @hopkins_ent ! Thrilled to join the residency program where my parents met and trained, and a department that has played such a big role in my love of ENT. A full-circle moment for us, for sure! @AAOHNS #otomatch #MatchDay2024 #Match2024

I’m going to be an ENT! If you told me four years ago I’d become a surgeon, I wouldn’t have believed you. But if you told me when I was four, I wouldn’t have been surprised! So honored & humbled to join this specialty that has been a part of my life for so long. #otomatch

It’s a good time for a reminder that maternal mortality rate is currently on the rise in the USA, but decreasing in other countries. Abortion-related mortality has been low since an abrupt decrease 1973.
