Diagnostic Radiology Residents

Exploring and cooking Habesha cuisine

My favorite weekend destination is exploring charming coastal towns. I love discovering hidden gems along the coastline, trying local cuisine, and taking leisurely strolls on the beach. There's something serene and rejuvenating about being by the water and experiencing the unique atmosphere of coastal communities

Before medical school, I underwent military training.

I chose Maine Medical Center because of the welcoming and supportive culture I experienced during my interactions with attendings, and residents. Their passion for teaching and commitment to growth makes it an ideal environment for my professional development.

Spending time with my wife and two kids, tennis > pickleball (but I will still pickle don't get me wrong), camping and backpacking, short/medium/long walks on the beach, skiing when and if I can afford it, eating delicious food while both waxing poetic and critiquing it at the same time

Across specialties, everyone only has tremendously good things to say about MMC and Maine in general. The radiology program has everything you want in a program - level 1 trauma, comprehensive stroke center, etc. - but is within a very convenient, livable, and fun city that is not bogged down with other big city concerns like excessive traffic or a work-aholic culture. Basically, MMC and Portland are a place I can thrive both professionally and personally.

The people: humble, excellent, competent, kind. I love Portland’s small-city vibe.

Anything outdoors, exercise, and wellness related. Trail runs, soccer, ice baths, and dog walks to name a few.

I did field research studying mammalian diversity and big cats. And I worked as an assistant for a plastic surgeon for one year.

Do an away rotation at MMC and you will see for yourself! The combination of great training, extremely friendly staff, the beauty of Maine, and being close to my family brought me here.

I am not well-versed in pop culture, but a curious encounter with a celebrity-look-alike app suggested a resemblance to Matt LeBlanc.
