Medical School: Tufts University School of Medicine
Favorite thing about living in Boston: The seasonal changes and the long summer days. Boston is truly a New England city and is very walkable. My favorite activity is to walk along the Esplanade and explore new restaurants in the North End.
Favorite thing about Tufts:The camaraderie amongst residents, fellows, attendings, nursing and ancillary staff. Tufts has a lot to offer in terms of training while also being small enough to build close friendships.
