In my free time, I love spending time with my wife and daughter, being outdoors, traveling, exercising, and attending concerts.

The field builds on my love of internal medicine while being highly procedural. The many organs involved in the digestive system create a wide breadth of pathology and allow for me to care for patients in acute, emergency situations while also building relationships with patients whose chronic diseases I will manage for years.
