What made you decide to go to medical school to become a physician?
Growing up, all I wanted was to go to medical school, but I was pushed into investment banking. I worked for Lehman Brothers until they went bankrupt, forcing me to step back and look at what I wanted to do. I felt a calling to help people and to serve, dedicate and commit myself to a life-long learning process. I was drawn to not only the science background, but also the humanistic aspect of medicine. Especially now, going forward, medicine is an extremely integrated field that draws from many academic disciplines. I wanted this opportunity to not only challenge myself but also to develop a greater diversity of perspectives.
