Personal: I was born and raised in the Washington DC metro area. I’ve lived in Idaho, Colorado, and most recently New Orleans, LA where I earned degrees in Epidemiology and Medicine. The Shenandoah Valley Family Practice Residency provides excellent full-spectrum training, which was the main reason why I wanted to be here. Also, the Shenandoah Valley landscape is beautiful and provides opportunities for tons of outdoor activities, and Washington DC is close enough for day trips. I plan to stay in the area and be a full-spectrum country doc. My interests include fitness, pc gaming, reading, golf, snowboarding, hunting, shooting, and family outings with my wife and daughter.
