My favorite animated movie is Toy Story.

The Adventures of Curious George is my favorite children's book because it reminds me of my childhood and inspires a sense of curiosity, adventure, and joy in learning.

My favorite childhood toys were my baseball glove, Hot Wheels, and LEGOs.

I draw inspiration from the courage and resilience of the children and families I serve. Guided by my faith, I strive to provide compassionate care that supports patients and their families through both triumphs and challenges.

Outside of work I enjoy spending time with my family, cheering on the Dodgers, hiking, and golfing.

One of the many reasons I chose to work in pediatrics is the opportunity to care for patients across a wide range of ages. We have the unique privilege of watching our patients grow from newborns into young men and women, while building meaningful connections with their families along the way. Supporting families through both everyday milestones and difficult moments is what makes this work truly fulfilling.

As a man of faith, I strive to serve all of my patients and their families with compassion, integrity, and overall quality care. In my practice of medicine, I prioritize strong communication with families to ensure they feel informed, supported, and actively involved in their child’s care. I am a strong advocate for organized youth sports and the life-lessons that can be learned through a child’s involvement.
