Personal Information

I grew up in Eagle, Idaho where I enjoyed playing baseball, alpine skiing, hiking, whitewater rafting and rock climbing. After obtaining a religion degree at Duke University, I returned to the Pacific Northwest for medical school at the University of Washington School of Medicine, where I was fortunate to meet the love of my life. Together, we spent seven years completing our specialty medical training at the University of Pittsburgh. We returned to the area in 2019 and since our family has grown with the addition of our children, Sloane and Conrad, and our doodles, Brooks and Sage. We love hiking, skiing, boating and family trips to Lake Roosevelt and beyond.

The provider was excellent in explaining what was happening to me (my neck) and gave me information that explained why I am having the pain. He actually looked up information on his phone that explained this all to me. The previous provider did not.
