Why Memorial?
Having grown up in Karachi—a vibrant coastal city—I’ve always been drawn to the horizon. There’s something grounding and inspiring about living in a coastal town, where the ocean reminds you of both direction and possibility. Memorial gives me that same feeling. Its proximity to the coast brings a sense of familiarity and calm that feels like home.
Beyond the setting, Memorial stands out for its warm community, supportive faculty, and genuine southern collegiality. It’s a place where people look out for each other, where learning is encouraged, and where residents truly grow. For me, Memorial is not just a training program—it’s a place where I know I can belong, contribute, and thrive.
