About Me

As a sports medicine and emergency medicine physician, I specialize in providing care for the critically ill in the emergency department. I also treat nonsurgical musculoskeletal issues including knee, shoulder, hip and ankle pain or injuries and serve as co-team physician for Denison University.

I am passionate about helping athletes of all ages and skill levels recover from injuries, meet their athletic goals and maintain a high quality of life. I am committed to making sure that my patients feel heard and that their care is in alignment with their goals.

In addition to my practice, I am interested in orthobiologics research and developing advanced treatments with the potential to help athletes recover faster from injuries.

What I appreciate most about The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center is the great sense of camaraderie and altruism. I strive to embody the same level of compassion with all my patients and colleagues.

When I’m not working, I enjoy traveling, photography, watching sports and cycling.
