About me

I am a radiation oncologist who specializes in treating:

I take a caring and clear approach to patient care. I’m committed to providing state-of-the-art radiation therapy, tailored to your needs.

My commitment to advancing cancer care goes beyond the clinic. As chief medical officer at OHSU’s Cancer Early Detection Advanced Research Center, I’m at the forefront of innovative work. I am the lead investigator for multiple clinical trials looking into ways to detect cancer at its earliest stages.

I was born and raised in Norman, Oklahoma, home of the University of Oklahoma, where I majored in mechanical engineering. Beyond work, my heart lies with the great outdoors. My companion is a vintage 1990 VW camper van, which has been turned into a symbol of wanderlust and family adventures. I spend my downtime working on it to ensure that it's ready for the next adventure.

Here's how to say my name.

Insurance

Before scheduling your appointment, we recommend you contact your insurance company to verify that the OHSU Health location or provider you plan to visit is included in your network. Your insurance company will also be able to inform you of any copayments, co–insurance, or deductibles that will be your responsibility. If you proceed in scheduling an appointment and your health insurance benefits do not participate with OHSU providers, your out of pocket liability may be higher. Visit the billing and insurance section of our site for more information.
