About
Hi all! I excited to be part of MHO.
I was born in Mexico and grew up in Los Angeles. My educational journey started as a Bruin then I completed a MD, PhD at Stanford University.
My passion is health equity, especially as it pertains to patients with cancer and survivorship support. Now as a Radiation Oncology resident, disparities in access to radiation-based treatments and healthcare needs are ever so present.
As a medical student, I was involved with the Latino Medical Student Association (LMSA). I enjoy the outdoors, exploring the LA food scene, and reading.
