Biography

I have always wanted to make a positive difference in peoples' lives. I like to know my patients have a complete understanding of their eye conditions. This helps them to be an active participate in the decision-making process when it comes time for treatment.

Outside of work, I enjoy many activities including backpacking, golf, tennis and outdoor photography.
