With a background in osteopathic medicine, I emphasize a balanced lifestyle, focusing on integrating good diet, regular exercise, and strong emotional support systems to promote overall well-being. I also enjoy working with residents in both ambulatory and acute care settings.
How I Thrive
Living well involves eating healthily, staying active, and enjoying life. For me, that involves a combination of exercise, travel, and enjoying some adventurous cuisine. Whatever it is I may be doing, I believe spending quality time with family and friends is crucial to my happiness and well-being.

How I Thrive
Faith, Family, Friends. Living with gratitude, hope, love, and purpose. Having a profession that I enjoy and that is fulfilling and allows me to lay my head down at night with a clear conscious regarding the work I did that day. Laughter (others as well as my own), playing basketball and golf and whatever else I can with family and friends, hiking/camping/backpacking, travelling, eating delicious food, watching movies/reading books.
