How I Thrive
At work, 'the lightbulb moments' at daily report and at one-on-one mentoring sessions with my residents energize me. At home, my wife and two children are a constant source of joy. When I need to blow off steam, you can find me running the trails, riding my road bike, or playing or coaching soccer or just about any other outdoor activity.

Personal Background and Interests
I grew up in the north suburbs of Chicago and went to University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign for undergrad. From there I went to medical school in at Saint Louis University, graduating with a distinction in research, and returned to Chicago for residency at Loyola. I trained in the med-peds program. After spending most of my first 35 years in Illinois, and practicing for 6 years in a fee-for-service health system, my wife and I relocated to Oakland. I joined the Department of Adult and Family Medicine here in 2015. Primary care is fun and rewarding and I love what I do every day. When I’m not primary caring, I enjoy making music with my guitar and my voice. I still follow Chicago sports (go Cubs) and the University of Illinois Fighting Illini. Since relocating to the bay area, my wife and I appreciate hiking, running, and exploring with our dog, Roger, year-round.
