Hello :)
My name is Teddy. I am a medical student going into diagnostic radiology residency with a keen interest in the intersections of public policy, technology, and medicine. I hope to become an effective physician and advocate in the future.
Originally from Busan, South Korea, I call DC and NY my home. I am fluent in Korean and English, and my other interests include cooking, reading, classical music, the outdoors, and 35mm film photography.
