Q: Why did you join AOCPMR?
A: Since I started looking into PM&R the AOCPMR has been an incredible resource for both LMU-DCOM’s club, as well as my personal inquiry into PM&R.  The willingness to help students accomplish their personal goals, as well as giving exposure of medical students to a specialty they may not have known otherwise really stuck out to me.

Q: What first attracted you to Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation?
A: I first learned about PM&R as specialty that really values and depends on tremendous teamwork to achieve life changing outcomes for patients.  The possibility of merging Osteopathic values and manipulation to this, as well as the many different directions PM&R can lead you professionally made working in PM&R an easy choice.

Q: What do you like to do in your free time?
A: Hang out with my wife, anything athletic, hunting, fishing, golfing.

Q: What is one goal you have for AOCPMR in the coming year?
A: To get the research committee a strong database of Physicians, with whom AOCPMR students can team with to get experience into PM&R.  I would also like to branch out to explore other resources students can use to get experience in PM&R.
