Why did you choose your specialty?

Pediatrics and Child Health is the hope of the future, and children tend to do better than older adults, with more resilience, growth and development.

What makes IPOKRaTES STUDENTS so unique for you?

I especially like getting to know students well over the week and in the evenings, and particularly returning to see them increasing so much in knowledge and leadership over the years.

My favorite extracurricular activities

I love coming to Europe because I am very interested in the history and culture of the many small towns and love the food, music and bookshops.
