What are your hobbies?

I love being active and creative. I'm re-learning cello and am inspired by many different types of music, from Star Wars to classical to American folk. My wife and I have taken cooking and glassblowing classes, and we enjoy the local parks. After a day in the ICU, our long summer days are perfect for a trail run.

How has your experience been in the program?

The dedication to teaching is phenomenal. Every moment can be a teaching moment, and the faculty are committed to teaching with humility. I've seen the very rare cases, but also have developed confidence in managing bread and butter cases. Our cohort has grown close and we love the local restaurants for something new and to decompress.
