My interest in medicine began at a young age, inspired by listening to my mother share stories from the intensive care unit and witnessing how compassionate care impacts the lives of patients and families.

My own active lifestyle and involvement with adaptive sports fostered my passion for Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation. I have volunteered with Vermont Adaptive Ski & Sports, the TRAILS Program in Salt Lake City, and various adaptive sports programs through the University of Michigan while in Residency training. These experiences reinforced my appreciation for resilience, determination, and the importance of helping individuals achieve their personal goals.

For me, the most rewarding aspect of Spine and Sports medicine is partnering with patients to restore function and help them return to the activities that matter most to them—whether that means sports, work, recreation, or daily life. My goal is to provide patient-centered care that empowers individuals to maximize their independence and quality of life.

Outside of medicine, I enjoy golf, CrossFit, mountain biking, skiing, and pickleball.
