About Me

I pursued a career in medicine because it offered the opportunity to combine scientific problem-solving with meaningful patient care. I was drawn to radiology because every imaging study is like solving a puzzle — bringing together technology, anatomy and clinical information to help answer important questions that guide a patient’s care.

I specialize in diagnostic radiology and nuclear medicine, with a particular focus on advanced molecular imaging and theranostics. I am passionate about helping patients receive timely and accurate diagnoses and enjoy collaborating closely with referring physicians to provide clear, thoughtful interpretations that support patient care. I am also committed to medical education and enjoy working with residents and medical students. Medicine is constantly evolving, and I believe curiosity, humility and lifelong learning are essential to providing the best possible care.

I am especially interested in the role imaging plays in bringing together different specialties to care for patients with complex conditions. My goal is to provide accurate, clinically meaningful imaging interpretations that help patients and their care teams make informed decisions with confidence.

Outside of medicine, I enjoy spending time with my wife and young daughter and exploring the outdoors in Vermont. I enjoy skiing, reading history, philosophy and classic fiction, and playing chess and guitar. These interests help me stay curious and bring different perspectives to my work as a physician.

Medicine is constantly evolving, and I believe curiosity, humility and lifelong learning are essential to providing the best possible care.
