I became a Physician Associate because I enjoy helping patients understand their health just as much as treating it. One of the most rewarding parts of my job is taking complex medical problems and explaining them in a way that patients and their families can understand. Whether you’re coming in with chronic sinus problems or navigating a new cancer diagnosis, my goal is to provide compassionate care, clear communication, and the knowledge you need to feel confident in your treatment plan.
I graduated from the Interservice Physician Assistant Program in 2012 and began my career caring for active-duty military members and their families in family medicine, urgent care, and emergency medicine. That experience gave me a strong foundation in diagnosing and treating a wide variety of medical conditions while caring for patients of all ages.
Since joining UCHealth in 2020, I have specialized in otolaryngology (ENT). I first worked alongside one of our head and neck surgeons caring for patients with complex benign and malignant tumors of the head and neck. Today, my practice includes both general ENT conditions as well as caring for hospitalized ENT patients and those with head and neck cancers. This combination of experiences allows me to care for patients with both common ENT concerns and more complex conditions while working closely with our outstanding team.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time outdoors with my wife, our two children, and our two dogs. I also continue to serve as a medical officer in the Colorado Army National Guard and am pursuing a doctorate focused on medical education and healthcare leadership.
I have a wife, two children, three dogs, and enjoy getting outside with them whenever I can.
