About Me

I enjoy caring for all patients and guiding them through their illness or injury in the emergency department and intensive care unit.

Providing advanced care in a rural state is incredibly rewarding, and I feel fortunate to work with such fantastic colleagues.

In the summer, my wife and I enjoy hiking with our black lab, and in the winter, we take every opportunity to ski.

Providing advanced care in a rural state is incredibly rewarding.
