Heart rhythm disorders and arrhythmias are almost always stressful, sometimes quite complex, and potentially very debilitating. It is my role as an electrophysiologist to not just treat the arrhythmia itself but to also honor and integrate each patient’s preferences in forming a comprehensive treatment plan.
First and foremost, I make it a priority for my patients to be well informed of their diagnosis and management options. This is critical in helping to alleviate some of the stress associated with heart rhythm disorders.
From there, we can jointly decide on the most appropriate treatment strategy for the condition ranging from lifestyle modifications, medications or procedures. Finally, I will always deliver my highest quality of care in the clinic, at the bedside, or while performing cardiac procedures on each patient’s journey toward recovery.
I was born and raised in the suburbs of Chicago and recently relocated to Colorado. My wife and I, along with our three children, are excited to explore all of the outdoor activities and culture Colorado has to offer.

-
I specialize in the evaluation and management of heart rhythm disorders and arrhythmias. I perform catheter ablation procedures to treat complex arrhythmias including supraventricular tachycardia, atrial flutter, atrial fibrillation, premature ventricular contractions, and ventricular tachycardia from both an endocardial and epicardial approach.
I value minimizing radiation exposure to the patient and our electrophysiology laboratory staff and routinely perform ablation procedures without the use of any X-ray. I also have surgical expertise in the implantation of cardiac devices including implantable loop recorders, pacemakers including conduction system pacing and leadless pacemakers, defibrillators, and biventricular devices.
- Research interest for patients
-
My research interests focus on clinical predictors for arrhythmias while my engineering background steers me toward investigating new technologies to treat heart rhythm disorders.
