background

I was born and raised in Spokane where I went to college at Whitworth University. From there, I graduated from the UW School of Medicine and left for medicine residency at Massachusetts General Hospital/Harvard Medical School. I am interested in imaging and preventive cardiology, particularly echocardiography and cardiac CT. Outside of medicine I enjoy aviation, traveling, and happy hour.
