Why did you choose to attend the UMKC School of Medicine?

Arguably the most important aspect of the medical school search is fit. I loved the idea of gaining valuable clinical exposure and unique opportunities to work closely with esteemed faculty through the docent program. The idea of having autonomy in my medical school curriculum was important to me too and unique to UMKC SOM. Lastly, I wanted to be in a place that felt like home. Kansas City is the perfect balance of big city energy and small-town comfort. To me, the perfect fit was a place where I could follow my own path, where I would be able to thrive but encouraged to excel. For this, I chose UMKC.

What have you enjoyed most about your experience at UMKC?

The best part about UMKC thus far has been the docent program. In my first week of medical school, I was able to have direct, meaningful interactions with patients. This sort of hands-on education with careful guidance has taught me so much in such a short amount of time. It has helped me understand what it really means to serve patients—the responsibility, the barriers, and the ultimate rewards. As a result, I know I will be more perceptive, deliberate, and confident in my future clinical endeavors. Although I have a long road ahead, I am thankful to have this fulfilling experience incorporated early in my medical education because it reminds me why I decided to pursue medicine in the first place.

Student organizations involved with/honors and awards:

In my undergraduate career, I was lucky enough to gain a broad spectrum of experiences that ultimately propelled my desire to pursue medicine. I worked as a scientific editor for the University of Chicago Medicine as well as a clinical research assistant for the Hospitalist Project. In my free time, I was an EMR and became involved in two student-run scientific journals through The Triple Helix, with the intention of promoting scientific discourse on campus. I loved the ability to interact with people through medical science and got to actively take part in improving the health of patients in marginalized communities as a UChicago Fellow for Community and Social Medicine.

At UMKC, I am eager to continue my interests in clinical research, scientific journalism, and service, with the hopes of sparking a few new fires along the way. I am currently a Student Ambassador and involved with Interprofessionalism and Bioethics research. I am excited to be a new member of the Osler Society and the American Medical Association.
