When I am not caring for patients, you can find me in the garden or taking care of my 200-gallon saltwater fish tank!

Why did you choose your specialty and what is its greatest reward?
I chose emergency medicine because there is never a dull moment and there is alway something new to learn. The greatest reward is when you put the pieces of a challenging case together and solve the patient's problem.
