Physician Assistant

Professional interests:

Practice philosophy: Better patient-provider relationships leads to better patient outcomes.
What are you passionate about and why? I am passionate about using the gifts I have been provided to help others achieve better health and find greater meaning in their lives.
If you weren't a health care provider, what would you be? In a boy band.
Why did you become a provider? When did you know this was the career for you? I became a provider because medicine has blessed my family in so many ways, and I want to be able to help others in similar fashion. I knew I wanted to be a PA midway through college.
What is something you have learned from your patients? Listening well is always worth it.
What is one of the challenges of this career you enjoy? And why? You can only know so much. Sometimes, the best thing to tell patients is that you don't know something, but will take the time to learn it.
What is your personal health goal? To exercise routinely and to sleep well.
What is the best thing you've done for your health or the best health advice you've received? Started weight-lifting for lower back pain. The best health advice I have received is to start doing now the things you want to be able to do when you're older.
What are you most proud of? The close relationships I have with my family and friends.
What are a few of your personal achievements? Graduating from PA school, buying my first car.
