About Me
As a podiatrist at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, I specialize in general podiatric care as well as wound care for the foot and ankle. My approach to care is to work with patients to provide a comprehensive and individualized treatment plan for their foot health issues.
I love working at a place that provides excellent multidisciplinary and individualized care to our patients that is also supported by state-of-the-art research.
In my free time I enjoy relaxing with my family, reading, watching movies and attending Ohio State football games.
