Biography:
My name is Daniel Rose, MD, and I am a pediatric resident at Emory University in Atlanta, GA whose experiences in medicine continually shape how I understand vulnerability, mortality, and human connection. I began writing poetry in middle school and was drawn to it as a way to express thoughts and emotions freely, without the constraints of formal grammar or structure, a freedom that continues to ground me amid the rigors of clinical life.
