Professional experience & accomplishments
I obtained a combined Bachelors and Masters of Science from the City College of New York. Throughout my time at City College I found a passion for research. I completed 2 years of Alzheimer’s research and defended my graduate thesis in neuroscience with an emphasis on Alzheimer’s.
During my medical school career at Touro COM, I gained a greater appreciation for community health and preventative medicine. I also served as Vice President of the Latinx Medical Student Association (LMSA). I learned the importance of the support that underrepresented minorities in medicine deserve.
