What attracted you to gastroenterology? The GI system is fascinating to me because it is so complex, and involves facets of so many other specialties such as neurology, immunology, microbiology and surgery. We have a rapidly growing toolbox of diagnostics and endoscopic procedures, and it is a true pleasure to help restore patients to doing the things they like — such as eating without fear of symptoms.

What attracted you to Mayo Clinic for fellowship training? The Mayo Clinic has an unparalleled faculty, with cutting-edge facilities and research that will allow me to provide the best patient care possible.

What makes the Mayo Clinic Advanced Esophageal Disease Fellowship unique? The Mayo Clinic Esophageal Disease Fellowship is unique because it allows me close mentorship from experts in all aspects of complex esophageal disease, access to the latest innovations in endoscopy, and dedicated time to focus on research.

What does your future look like right now? After completing training at Mayo I plan to pursue a career in academic gastroenterology with a focus on esophageal diseases.
