Why I chose to pursue a career in healthcare:

I have always had an interest in medicine. I love solving the "puzzle" to give patients a diagnosis and offer treatment to help them achieve better health and quality of life.

What I want my patients to know about me:

I am married and I have two boys. I grew up in Western Pennsylvania.

What I do when I'm not seeing patients:

I like baking, reading, hiking, and horseback riding.
