AJ was born and raised in South Florida where he grew up competing in wrestling and water polo. From a young age, AJ was inspired to pursue a career in oncology. He followed his calling at the University of Florida, completing college and medical school via UF’s Medical Honors Program. At UFCOM, AJ was a home hospice volunteer, led mentorship workshops for the 3rd year IM clerkship, co-edited UFCOM’s 2023 Art & Literary Magazine, and helped co-lead his school’s 2020 medical service trip to the Dominican Republic. In his free time, AJ enjoys pickleball, overindulging on Publix chocolate chip cookies, weightlifting, intramural sports, fantasy football, Florida football (Go Gators), writing poetry, binging HBO and Netflix, and spending time with his loved ones, friends, and beloved cat Arthur. AJ cannot wait to join the Vandy IM family!
