During her residency, she has been involved in numerous projects such as the Anti-Human Trafficking, developed the anti-racism curriculum for the psychiatry residency program and teaches classes to all PGY levels on this subject matter. She plans to pursue a career in Consult/Liaison Psychiatry, which is what led her to collaborating with the cardiothoracic surgery department at her hospital to study the impact of Aortic Disease on patients’ mental health and health outcomes.
