About Me
I joined Champlain Valley Physicians Hospital Medical Staff in 2008 as a general surgeon and have served in various leadership roles throughout my years here. In my current role, I oversee physician‑related services, including medical staff and quality, while also leading perioperative operations to improve patient care and operational efficiency.
I'm board certified by the American Board of Surgery and the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada, along with holding other certifications.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my girls and being outdoors during the summer months.
