The fellowship is a great opportunity to develop and hone my teaching skills. I am excited to share my passion for OMM with my students and cannot wait to continue learning from the other fellows and department faculty and staff. I thoroughly enjoyed my pre-clinical years and I hope I can contribute to the cultivation of a similar supportive, collaborative, and engaging learning community.
