It was great to return to @ClevelandClinic two weeks ago to reconnect with friends and learn about the management of irAEs for patients who have received immunotherapy treatment. Thank you @FunchainMD, Laura Wood, and colleagues for planning such a great meeting!

Our program director gave each fellow a Christmas gift. I was off work last week for the holidays and found this on my first day back today. I’m very grateful to be in such a supportive, thoughtful training program.

Today our fellows got @nothingbundt cakes from GME leaders at @ScrippsHealth for Thanksgiving. I am very grateful to be a trainee here. It’s a great place to work, learn, and care for patients.

This is my mom featured in her school's faculty spotlight. She left her job in management in 2010 to earn her MSN and teach future nurses. She loves her work and makes a difference every single day. I am so proud of her.

Your coworkers know you well when they give you gifts like these! It’ll make our fellowship wellness hike tomorrow in the San Diego mountains safe for our skin.

I rediscovered this gem photo today. This was taken May 2019 after @JosephHabibi_MD and I submitted our @acgme Back to Bedside grant. We were almost R2s!
Our project was funded & the work was published this summer. So grateful for our friendship!

I saw this at @MuirWoodsNPS today. Thank you @NatlParkService for making sure that we all acknowledge the women and ethnic groups who helped make US history.

Our residency program gave us @WelchAllyn pen lights with our names on them at graduation today. An incredibly thoughtful and useful gift to top off a wonderful and memorable year. I am beyond grateful!

My mom is a nursing educator. Her students have been such a blessing in the wake of my father’s death by checking in on her daily. Today they gave her a stuffed Santa with a beard like my dad’s that completely made her day. I am thankful for every one of them. Such great people!

I saw this plate at a red light near home today. Quite a sign of the pandemic times!
