Executive Bio

I have always felt practicing medicine to be a sacred vocation, an extension of my faith, in which patients and their families have entrusted me to care for the people they hold dearest. My position as a neurologist allows me to do that in a meaningful and comprehensive way – focusing not just on individual people, but the communities they come from. 

As a Sci-Fi junky, neurology represents the final frontier and studying the brain requires an in-depth appreciation of technology, physical subtleties, and the un-known. Although I love all of neurology, I am particularly interested in stroke and epilepsy, the latter of which I have additional training. You will mostly see me in the inpatient setting (i.e. hospital) given my addiction to the at times fast paced and variable nature of a typical day. 

My philosophy is to treat patients the way you would want yourself or a family member to be treated. Communication is critical to this goal. No matter how long the day has been, I try to listen and learn and develop as a physician knowing that lives depend on it. I want my patients and their families to know they are in good hands, because I care, and I will fight for them even when it’s inconvenient.
