Professional:

My voyage to my new home at CTMC has taken me from my native Florida, where I grew up and trained; to the rural, then resort towns, and finally, to the Twin Cities of Minnesota.

I have done the full-scope of pediatrics in rural, small towns, and large cities; traveled to and worked in hospitals throughout the country; became a hospitalist and adjunct professor for the University of Minnesota; to now coming full circle back to being a primary care pediatrician with CTMC.

My goal is to partner with you and hopefully become part of your extended family. Our goal, together, is to help guide your children to a healthy and happy future. Let our family at CTMC take that path with you.

I have special interests in newborns; Type 1 Diabetes (also personal experience); as well as Autism and special needs (our youngest son is on the spectrum).

Personal:

My wife and I are both Pediatricians, she is currently with Fairview Brooklyn Park. We have three kids and just as many dogs. In our spare time, we love to travel; going walking/hiking in new places in nature; going to the movies, and Florida Gator Football games.

My other big passion, besides my family and pediatrics, is tennis, which I will do as much as time and my body will allow.
