Louisiana State University School of Medicine, New Orleans 

What undergraduate school did you attend? What did you study?
Mississippi College, Biological Medical Sciences (BS and MS)

What were you looking for in a residency program when you selected LSU?
I was atttracted to the residency program here because, while as a student, I saw a program that worked together, supported, and taught each other with staff in support. The program has early hands-on training and graduating residents were prepared for the OR with the skills to problem solve in situations outside their comfort zone.

What advice would you give to incoming residents?
Work hard, be a good team member, there is something to be learned from every situation and everyone.
