A keen interest in spine and joint health as well as sports medicine inspired me to specialize in orthopedics. As a Physician Assistant, I encourage patients to play an active role in their health and wellness through education and an open patient-practitioner relationship. After graduating from the University of Utah, Salt Lake City with a bachelors in Exercise and Sport Science, I earned my masters of Physician Assistant Practice from the University of Southern California, Los Angeles. I’ve been certified by the National Commission on Certification of Physician Assistants since 2005.
