About

I love all things sports, especially basketball and golf. I am originally from Indianapolis and love to watch Colts and Pacers games. My favorite thing to do is to spend time with my wife and friends when I’m not working, and I also love working on projects around the house and hosting people for bonfires and cook-outs. Right now, I am probably leaning toward hospital medicine or primary care with an emphasis on leadership and teaching!

Why I Chose Peoria

My wife and I chose Peoria because we loved the family friendly vibe of the program and the city. I mean there’s a Costco, Chick Fil A, and Target within 10 minutes from our house. What’s not to love!? But seriously, the residents here are great and have a way of teaching you that feels empowering rather than belittling, and there is so much support for Med-Peds within the categorical programs too!
