Introduction: I'm a PGY-4 pathology resident with prior residency training in diagnostic radiology, and will be doing my fellowship in forensic pathology at the OMI in Albuquerque. I have a passion for the gross anatomic - histologic correlate and am driven by the spectrum of surgical and autopsy pathology diagnoses we are privy to in our specialty. I'm originally from California, but did much of my medical training in the Midwest.
The pathology program at UNM promised early exposure to multiple specialties within pathology, which was essential in confirming my subspecialty choice. The Office of the Medical Examiner is widely known amongst the forensic pathology community as a center of excellence and has a massive alumni presence throughout the United States. Finally, the program and its residents had a very open, welcoming feel, which is something we continue to strive for.
