I earned my medical degree from the University of Health Sciences College of Osteopathic Medicine in Kansas City,Missouri. After serving in the United States Navy for three years as a physician, I completed my residency training in family medicine at Resurrection Medical Center, Chicago,Illinois.

As a family physician, I especially enjoy preventative medicine and well child care. My background in the military gave me extensive experience in sports medicine. I like to set an example for my patients as someone who practices a healthy lifestyle including being active and eating a good diet. Through this and discussions about a patients health, I am able to build strong, personal, long-lasting relationships with my patients and their families.
