What do I enjoy doing in my free time: During my free time I enjoy trying new restaurants (especially brunch places with friends), reading, trying new recipes, attending painting classes, doing group workout classes (Zumba, Pilates, etc). I also enjoy going to music and food festivals.  

Interesting tidbits: During Covid, I learned that I have an interest in gardening and growing house plants. If I weren’t a physician, I’d probably be a chef or baker. Even though I don’t currently have a pet, I love animals! I enjoy planning events and trips, decorating and interior design.
