Such a rich learning environment is supported by the brilliant minds of Johns Hopkins faculty and housestaff, with a litany of research and career opportunities. On top of all this, I am very fortunate to be part of the pioneer first class of the new emergency medicine-anesthesiology residency, a combination only possible at Johns Hopkins.
David Leon was born and raised in the Washington, D.C., area. He attended University of Virginia, where he majored in biology and did research in circadian rhythms.

He then worked both as an emergency department scribe as well as a clinical assistant at a private dermatology clinic prior to attending University of Vermont Larner College of Medicine. He hopes to continue to pursue his interests, both academic and extracurricular, while completing his residency at Johns Hopkins.
