What is your hometown?

Taoyuan, Taiwan.

 

Where did you attend medical school?

UIW School of Osteopathic Medicine (UIWSOM).

 

What other educational credentials do you have?

B.S. in Biomedical Sciences from Texas A&M.

 

What are your particular clinical interests and why?

Rural/underserved medicine. I grew up in a medically underserved area where we had to drive far for healthcare. This is why I want to be able to practice full scope family medicine in a community like the one I am from.

 

Why did you choose Family Medicine?

Because of the broad scope of practice and the opportunity to build long-term relationships with my patients.

 

Why did you choose the Community Based Family Medicine Residency program?

From the faculty and staff to the upper level residents, everyone is so supportive and really do try to provide a nurturing environment for all to learn. There is a healthy culture of respect and guidance.

 

What are your hobbies and interests outside of medicine?

Being outdoors, activities like hiking, camping, and fishing. Spending time with my family. Playing with my dogs Momo and Ronald. Cooking and trying new recipes.
