Resident ed, cross-specialty collab, & chasing the highest level of patient care — this is how you do it.

Brain surgery isn’t just about the brain.
It’s about hope.
It’s about trust.
It’s about families.
It’s about giving someone another chance at life.
#NeurosurgeryAwarenessMonth @AANSNeuro and grateful every day to do what I love.

Getting into residency has never been harder—and it's not because applicants aren't qualified.
Top scores. Exceptional research. Yet outstanding med students are going unmatched.
Keep showing up. Keep growing. One email doesn’t define you. #Match2026 #MedTwitter #MedicalEd

Excited to be at the Neurosurgical Society of America (NSA) this AM. Great location in Grand Cayman, saw tumor talk from great friend Isaac Yang, and happy now to be official member. Quite a venue to say the least.
