Hobbies

Although originally born in Mexico, I consider myself a native San Antonian since I moved here when I was twelve. My hobbies include playing/watching/coaching tennis, obsessing over sports in general (#GoSpursGo, #HookEm, #GoStros, etc.), singing songs from Ms. Rachel on YouTube with my daughter, looking through Zillow with my wife fantasizing about our future home, watching MCU movies with my brother, making fire Spotify playlists ranging from Country music to Latin trap, and eating all kinds of food with my friends and loved ones.

Professional Interests

Currently interested in Pain Medicine, Sports Medicine, and Brain Injury. Also interested in Academics and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in Medicine.
