“I have always had a desire to help facilitate the growth, development and health of pediatric patients. These children are so resilient and succeed through the hardest of situations. I chose primary care to grow and build lasting relationships with patients and their families as they advance through the various pediatric life stages.”

He advanced his career from the bedside nursing role to the provider role so he could better care for his patients. As a nurse practitioner, he feels he can customize care for each patient that will benefit them throughout their lives.
