So honoured to have received the Lieutenant Governor of Québec's Youth Medal in recognition of my social impacts during medical school McGill Medicine and Health Sciences. I'm thankful to McGill University for nominating me for this award and looking forward to continue serving Quebecers as a resident physician.

It’s time to get the smoke out of our eyes and treat fossil fuels like the unhealthy commodity that they are.
