I was born in Nigeria and earned my medical degree from Ivano-Frankivsk National Medical University in Ukraine. My journey has been shaped by resilience, service, and purpose, from volunteering during the early Ukraine conflict, supporting displaced and injured families, to practicing medicine in underserved rural communities in Nigeria. Now based in Houston, Texas, I continue to build a life centered on family, impact, and growth alongside my loving spouse and son. A God-fearing, natural leader and team player, I have consistently used my voice to uplift others, mentor peers, and improve community outcomes. My diverse experiences have solidified my deep commitment to Family Medicine and my passion for delivering compassionate, patient-centered care.
My path to Gadsden feels nothing short of providential. From the moment I visited, the warmth, serenity, and genuine kindness of the community, paired with the strong camaraderie at Gadsden Regional, created an immediate sense of belonging for me and my family. I am honored to train in an environment that nurtures both professional excellence and meaningful human connection.
Known for my joyful spirit and ability to connect with others, I find fulfillment in putting smiles on people’s faces, learning, teaching, and serving. I enjoy sports, meaningful conversations, and spending quality time with loved ones. Fluent in four languages, including Russian, I embrace diversity and encourage others to find strength, growth, and hope in every season of life.
