I am from Huntley, Illinois and attended the University of Illinois College of Medicine. I came to Arizona for the location and the friendly, caring attending and residents. This program gives me good exposure to general pediatrics as well as specialty pediatric medicine. We have a great team of residents that make coming to work fun. I like to spend time with my wife and three kids when I am not working. We enjoy camping, hiking, and I like to get a run in when I can. Life after residency for me will be a fellowship or job as a hospitalist.
