About

Philosophy of care

As a pediatrician, I am here to provide guidance and support to help your children grow and thrive! Forming healthy habits during childhood provides the foundation for disease prevention and a healthy adult lifestyle. I believe in working together to make decisions as a team for what is right for your child and for your family. Every child is unique and, as a parent, no one knows your child better than you! I’m always happy to answer questions (nothing is too small or silly) and hope to put your mind at ease.

Why I entered medicine

I was always interested in science and became interested in medicine when my youngest sister was born extremely premature. Her experience in the NICU inspired me to dedicate my life to helping children. I feel incredibly grateful that I get to spend my career helping kids grow and develop into their best selves!

Community involvement

I enjoy teaching and volunteer as a mentor and tutor for underprivileged and/or underrepresented college students interested in medicine.

Personal interests

Outside of work you can find me spending time with my wife Brittany and our two labradoodles, Bailey and Wrigley. I love music, the beach, sports cars and video games.
