I’m an internal medicine doctor passionate about providing care that helps build a more beautiful and just community. I’m inspired to treat and cure conditions that affect many aspects of people’s lives, such as chronic infections and substance use disorders. I find deep meaning in walking alongside my patients through their struggles, triumphs and healing journeys. My research focuses on understanding and addressing health disparities impacting certain populations, and I’m committed to creating more equitable healthcare.

When I’m not working, I love exploring Oregon’s beaches, forests, mountains and deserts with my wife and our adventurous Chihuahua, Toby. I’ve also recently taken up boxing for fitness and enjoy the challenge of learning something new.
