My Sleep Medicine fellowship at Mayo Clinic was profoundly fulfilling and life-changing, making it a pivotal period in my training years. After being trained by renowned experts in the field, I not only felt that I had gained a robust sleep medicine foundation ready to take on the most challenging cases but also felt inspired by my mentors to pursue a sleep research career and become an independent sleep medicine scientist. Now, I am fortunate to have my dream job.

I had the utmost privilege to complete my Sleep Medicine Fellowship at Mayo Clinic Rochester. The training was intense, and our mentors provided excellent support and guidance for us to get ready for real life. I am grateful to have been a part of this dynamic and stimulating fellowship experience. I had a baby during my fellowship, and the support was immense. After graduating, I could call mentors to discuss any challenging cases. Currently, I operate a private sleep center in our community.
