What attracted you to gastroenterology? Advanced endoscopy is the subspecialty in gastroenterology with the most innovative potential from my perspective and I’m very excited for the future of this field. I also love doing procedures, working on things with my hands, and learning new technical (endoscopic) skills.

What attracted you to Mayo Clinic for fellowship training? Mayo Clinic’s unwavering dedication to patient care and unparalleled mentorship are the main reasons why I chose Mayo Clinic. This special place offers a unique integrated patient-centered care and exceptional clinical training, which are the roots of Mayo Clinic’s success in becoming one of the most trusted health organization in the world.

What makes the Mayo Clinic Advanced Endoscopy Fellowship Unique? It's about the unique opportunity to be trained and mentored by the leaders in the field of Advanced Endoscopy, in such a family-oriented environment (and the Mayo way that I’m familiar with).

What does your future look like? I see myself working as an academic therapeutic endoscopist in the U.S. at least for a few more years, then I will consider going back to my hometown.
