Brief Intro

I grew up in Minnesota, attended medical school in Arizona, and completed my orthopedic surgery training in California. Tacoma is now my home. Our family has three kids, three cats, and a bunny. I think I've talked a work colleague into taking the bunny. It is amazing to be able to help people every day, and call it work. I am on the board of directors for the Washington Permanente Medical Group, which is the governance body for the medical group providers.
