BS Biology, Minor in Chemistry, University of Maryland Eastern Shore
-Close to home, small college atmosphere, and public school now saves me money
M.D. from the University of Maryland School of Medicine
-Close to home, in state, world renowned R Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center, great learning hospital on the whole
Residency in Emergency Medicine at Pitt
-Has an excellent (one of the top in my opinion) EM residencies, and have heard nothing but positive feedback about it.
EMS Fellowship at Washington University of St. Louis
-I started my medical career in EMS, and am still very passionate about it. I have talked to the fellowship director at WU and they are very active, and focus on operational EMS (tactical, event, aero/ground) instead of administrative
(Of course this is all a tentative plan)
-Main reason: I want to work full time as an EM physician, and hopefully develop a physician emergency response team wherever I eventually practice
