TRAINEES IN THE SPOTLIGHT
Our 2022-2023 general psychiatry residency chiefs
Hillary Paulsen, M.D.
PGY-4, 2022–23 Chief Resident
Hillary Paulsen, M.D., grew up in the Bay Area and attended the University of Michigan Medical School. At UM, she was the social services coordinator for the school’s only student-run free clinic and co-founded a program to expand insurance enrollment services. Hillary has been involved in administrative psychiatry at UC Davis for the past three years and enjoys advocating for her co-residents by collaborating with the many faculty at UC Davis who are passionate about resident education. Specifically, she led the formation of the Enrichment Committee and cemented its role for resident wellness with protected funds for monthly events.
Erica Smith, M.D.
PGY-3, 2022–23 Associate Chief Resident
Erica Smith, M.D., is from Hampton, Virginia and attended the College of William & Mary in Williamsburg for her undergraduate degree. There, she studied Sociology and Environmental Science and fostered her interests in learning about health inequities. She attended Saint Louis University for medical school where she furthered her interests in learning about the social determinants of health and gained experience by working in federally qualified health centers and volunteering in student clinics. At UC Davis, she continues to grow her interests in learning and teaching — previously as Education Chair and now as Associate Chief Resident — by organizing journal clubs, coordinating volunteer events, and forming monthly meetings with residents on educational topics.
