Hey everyone! With Match Day approaching tomorrow, I just wanted to come on here and give some good vibes. I truly hope every 4th year medical student reading this opens an email with great news tomorrow. Realistically, there will be a few of you who don't receive good news, and as someone who previously went unmatched more than once, I wanted to come on here and share my journey in hopes that it gives you some encouragement. I'm a proud DO and current plastic surgery resident, but the road getting to this point has been far from easy. Here's my match journey video, and I hope it inspires anyone who needs it to keep pushing:

Anyway wishing everyone in this year's match all the best and a great week ahead!
