Get to Know Me

I was raised in Jackson Hole, Wyo. where I did a lot of hiking, skiing, camping and exploring. I was a computer consultant prior to entering the medical field.  I’ve worked with pediatric patients as a physician assistant in: craniofacial surgery, plastic surgery, neurosurgery, general surgery, urology, orthopedics and emergency medicine. It was during my clinical rotations in school that I realized I liked working with kids.

Why I Treat Children

I enjoy working and interacting with kids of all ages.  I like to make them smile when they don’t feel well and teach them things when they have questions.

What I'm Passionate About

I try to give children and families access to the best medical care and provide an experience that they will enjoy. I also want to help them understand the translation from medical jargon to layman speak. I work to help families better aid in the care of their children as they get older.

How I Try to Make A Difference

I try to continue my education in pediatric care, as well as continue to find better ways to assist and treat kids. I also share knowledge when I educate family and patients.
