I am originally from Richmond, Virginia, where I attended Virginia Commonwealth University for undergrad and medical school. I moved to Iowa City for the excellent family medicine residency program, and loved it so much that I stayed on after graduation. I currently teach medical students and residents, practice outpatient family medicine at our Muscatine outreach clinic, and urgent care at Scott Boulevard. I live with my partner Amy and our two cats. Hobbies include reading and outdoor activities especially running, tennis, and hiking.
