Margaret attended Harvard Medical School and will be completing her residency at Brigham and Women's Hospital.
Margaret spent her final two years at Stanford as a teaching assistant for undergraduate courses on community health and health disparities. She particularly enjoyed helping students improve their writing and their ability to craft sound research questions.
Margaret caught the traveling bug while living in Europe and loves to travel as much as she can outside of school. She also likes to return home to Maine to hike and swim and reads as many novels as she can manage!
