I grew up in Orange County and moved to LA for college. I am now happily married and go to medical school in San Diego. I became very involved in our school's free clinics and I am desperately trying to master my spanish so I can communicate better with my patients.

My dream is that one day everyone will have access to healthcare regardless of their socioeconomic status

I'd like to meet people who are positive realistic dreamers. They are the most inspiring.

I am sure everyone has heard this one before ...

"Be the change you wish to see in the world." - Ghandi

It's a hard quote to live by, but the possibilities are endless if you are up to the challenge.

"Expect the worst. Hope for the best." - My husband
I live my life by that quote each time I try a new endeavour. Hope is what drives change.
