National Academy of Future Physicians Award - May 2021

Upcoming - Invited to attend the Future Docs Abroad Program. This is a unique opportunity to work alongside surgeons for nearly 3 weeks in Vietnam in underserved neighborhoods. I am honored as this is a not only prestigious invitation, but I am half Vietnamese and look forward to visiting the country where my mother was born. I attended the trip in July 2022.

My mother was born in Vietnam and abandoned on a doorstep of a church. She was one of the fortunate ones to be adopted. She came to America at 18 months and has never been back. A piece of me feels proud to volunteer my time and give back to her country of birth.
