As a high school athlete, I suffered a complex knee injury that sparked my journey to becoming a physician.

What do you love most about your specialty? / Why did you choose your specialty?

I sincerely enjoy the diverse population ranging from competitive athletes, weekend warriors, and active members of the elderly population. I take pride in promoting wellness and exercise, and most of all I love treating young athletes who walk in the same footsteps that I once walked in.

How do you connect with your patients?

I connect with my patients through conversation. I strive to understand their unique qualities, motivations, and life experiences. My medical treatments and plans are individualized and tailored towards each and every unique person. It's both an honor and a privilege to learn and grow from the diversity of my patient population.

The road to success always begins with taking the first step.
