Nolan grew up in Naperville, Illinois before attending the Illinois Mathematics and Science Academy for high school. He earned a degree in Molecular Biochemistry & Biophysics from Yale, and subsequently graduated from medical school at UCLA. He then completed his internship in internal medicine at Kaiser Permanente, Los Angeles Medical Center, before joining the dermatology residency program at Stanford. Nolan’s interests in dermatology are broad, but he particularly enjoys cutaneous oncology, and hopes to shape both his clinical practice and academic interests around improving the care and lives of patients with skin cancer or other malignancies. Outside of medicine, Nolan is passionate about ice cream and matcha lattes, and enjoys tennis, table tennis, and hiking.
