I was born and raised on the east side of Cleveland in a small town called Chesterland. I got my BA in Psychology at Miami University and then my MD at the Boonshoft School of Medicine in Dayton. I am so excited to be back home to continue my medical training with the MetroHealth family! I chose to train as a family medicine doctor because I love outpatient medicine and making small (or sometimes large) impacts on patients' lives one visit at a time. I think a family medicine physician has the potential to be a key pillar of their community who fosters healthy habits and trust in the healthcare system. Some of my areas of medical interest include sports medicine, community medicine, point-of-care ultrasound, preventative medicine, and lifestyle medicine.

Beyond medicine, I have a few things that keep me happy and healthy. I am married to my high school sweetheart Jasmine, who is a Kindergarten teacher. We have a Border Collie/Australian Shepherd named Bear and a Russian Blue cat named Grace. Some of my favorite hobbies are cooking, reading (mostly fantasy and horror), homebrewing, disc golf, biking, volleyball, and of course video games when I can find the time!
