My Call

My calling into medicine began with a calling into full-time medical missions. When I decided to go to medical school, it was because I had decided that I wanted to have an impact on international communities and specifically I wanted something to contribute to a community. I felt that meeting someone’s physical needs through medicine was a good gateway to talk about meeting their spiritual needs through a deep personal relationship with Jesus Christ. My long-term goals are to pursue being a general surgeon in an underserved area, likely overseas, and to participate in the education of surgical residents and medical personnel internationally.
