About
Philosophy of care
My philosophy is to enable patients to better understand their conditions and be involved in their own care. Informed patients make the best decisions.
Community involvement
I have always volunteered in the emergency services. I am a fully trained firefighter and rescue technician. I enjoy riding on ambulance calls and hope to stay involved in this service for many years to come.
Personal interests
I enjoy the outdoors, especially the beach and boating. I also enjoy fishing and all forms of motorsports.
