Summary

Inspired and motivated student, looking to fully apply myself to the world of medicine. As a hardworking 1st-Generation Latino American, I excel in team focused environments especially in roles of leadership. Mainly experienced with medical imaging, but I have a deep passion for the human heart due to my father's own health complications. Ready to learn any skills necessary and highly motivated to always do more than what is expected.
