IMG Success Story: Extracurriculars and Involvement Pave the Way to Residency

Moe Ameri was born and raised in Baghdad, Iraq, moved to the United States in 2007 where he learned English in high school, all the while moving all over the states. He considers Houston, Texas his hometown. He obtained a bachelor's in science in biology from the University of Houston and a master's of biomedical sciences from Geisinger Commonwealth School of Medicine. He went on to obtain his medical degree from AUC School of Medicine and Matched in Internal Medicine at Texas Medical Branch. He is a huge Manchester United fan and a big fan of Houston team sports in general. He also loves going on hikes and taking road trips. Moe has a deep passion for leadership, mentorship, and service activities. As for future career goals, he would definitely like to sub-specialize; Hem-Oncology and Pulmonary Critical Care both attracted his attention, but he’s keeping his options open and keeping an open mind.
