I chose to become a nurse practitioner because of my passion for helping people. Not only do I focus on diagnosing and treating a patient’s illness, but I also work with patients to create preventive health care plans to maintain or improve their quality of life.

I enjoy furthering my education and appreciate the opportunities I am given to learn from every individual I meet. My desire to obtain knowledge and mastery in my field led me to a degree in advanced practice nursing.

In my free time I enjoy spending time with my wife and three wonderful children. We like to bike and fish. With everyone’s schedules being as busy as they are in today’s society, we take full advantage of spending as much time together as possible. I also value time in my garage when I can restore cars, improve my carpentry skills, or fix anything that my family breaks!"
