I was born near Philadelphia, PA and lived there with my parents and older brother until I was 8, when my family packed up and moved across the world to the small mountain town of Kodaikanal, India. I grew up in the beautiful Western Ghats of South India until I graduated from high school. Living in a town of 35,000 people with only one hospital sparked my interest in pursuing medicine.

I attended Sarah Lawrence College in Bronxville, NY, where I pursued a degree in biology on the pre-med track. Following graduation, I worked as a clinical research assistant at the Kennedy Krieger Institute, here in Baltimore, focusing on Sturge-Weber syndrome. It was during this time that I truly fell in love with the city and its people. I then moved across the country to Las Cruces, New Mexico, to attend medical school at Burrell College of Osteopathic Medicine. There, I pursued my interest in promoting cultural diversity by holding leadership positions in the South Asian Medical Student Association. During medical school, I was drawn to family medicine for its variety, continuity of care, and emphasis on preventative medicine. I am thrilled to have the opportunity to train at MedStar Franklin Square and serve the Baltimore community once again.

Outside of medicine, I enjoy searching for my next favorite book, discovering the best coffee in town, and planning my next international trip!
