Fun Facts

Not only am I currently studying to become a doctor in podiatric medicine, but I am also a professional boxer. Outside of my studies, when I am not training for another fight, I am engaged in various hobbies, which include, but are not limited to, winemaking, playing the saxophone, and DIY projects.

About Me

I am a podiatric medical student at the UTRGV School of Podiatric Medicine. I have been accepted into the student cohort of the American Society of Bone and Mineral Research, and I am the primary author of a peer-reviewed article on diabetic wound care.

Experience

While attending Texas Tech University, I worked as a peer tutor in the subjects of Chemistry and Biology during my junior and senior years. I tutored 2-3 students a day, 3-5 days a week. As a student at the UTRGV School of Podiatric Medicine, I take it upon myself to mentor my colleagues and assist them with their studies whenever needed.

Approach

I believe in using a stepwise approach to deconstruct and analyse complex subject matter. With a bachelor's degree in philosophy, I have found that formal logic serves as the foundation of all disciplines. When utilised correctly, this foundation will enhance critical thinking and eventually become intuitive.
