I was born in the very cold city of Rochester, New York. 

My mother was working in Rochester in an urban health 

clinic as a requirement for her Green Card. However we 

considered our home to be Auburn, NY where my father 

worked as an Internist. 

Life in the tiny town of 

Auburn, a whole eight square 

miles, was simple. Although 

beautiful, we were sick of the 

never ending snow. Just 

stepping out of the house 

was an hour long process of 

piling on clothes, gloves, 

coats and boots. My father 

had to shovel the driveway 

every single day for many 

months of the year and life 

came to a halt when the 

blizzards hit the city.

When I turned three, my father was accepted in 

the Endocrinology Fellowship program at UT-

Southwestern hospital.

In December 2000, we sold our house and loaded our 

things onto a moving truck. It took us 3 ½ days to drive 

1308 miles from my first house to our new life in 

Coppell, TX. We were excited to start a new life in a 

busy metropolis. We also looked forward to no more 

snow!

Our first house was perfect 

for us, one bedroom each 

for me and my brother and 

one for my parents. I loved 

my school and friends. In 

my elementary school 

years I played a lot of 

soccer. My family decided 

that Coppell suited us well 

and we would live here for 

many years. After my 

father finished his training 

at the University of Texas, 

he started his own private 

medical practice in 

Lewisville.
