Favorite part about Legacy’s residency program: I was drawn to Legacy Emanuel for its high acuity patient care, and when I heard about the culture at Legacy Health, I was hooked.

Interesting fact: : I spent 3 years searching Ross and TJ Maxx for specific owl mugs to complete my "Home Essentials" owl mug collection. The mugs were available online for $25, but I couldn't justify spending more than the $3.99 I had originally paid for each mug. After going to multiple stores in multiple states I finally completed my 8-mug collection at $3.99 apiece.
