About me

Welcome. After 25 years of military service, I returned home to be closer to family and to serve the community where I grew up. It is a privilege I value deeply to care for you and your family.

 

Biography

 

I grew up in a working-class community and was fortunate to have supportive parents, brothers, teachers, and friends who shaped my path. I attended Norwich University and then the Uniformed Services University School of Medicine. I completed my residency in family medicine at Martin Army Community Hospital in 2005. During my career in the US Army, I cared for service members and their families in a variety of clinical and leadership roles. In the final 3 years of my military career, I served as chief of Family Medicine at Madigan Army Medical Center at Joint Base Lewis–McChord before retiring from the Army as a colonel in 2023.

 

About my practice

 

My approach to family medicine is guided by the values that shaped my upbringing and my career in the Army: loyalty, duty, and respect. I believe in partnering with members to focus on healthy habits, prevention, and treatment that is based on evidence and current research. I also believe that listening carefully and understanding each member’s goals is essential to providing the best care.

 

How I thrive

 

Maintaining balance is important to me. Regular exercise and time outdoors help me stay healthy and focused. I also value time with family, which helps me bring my best self to members and my work.
