About Me

I began my healthcare career nearly 10 years ago training and working as a Radiologic Technologist. From this, I found passion with medicine, gained great friends and mentors who supported my decision to pursue my dream. Besides work, I enjoy spending time with my wonderful wife Tia, daughter Kaylee Mae, friends and family. We love to travel anytime we have the chance.

Why UK?

After having the opportunity to work with several EM physicians who previously trained at UK, I knew rotating at this program was a must. My expectations of the program were surpassed by the excellent faculty, residents, and staff. Shout out to J. Rose…..My experience while rotating at UK was excellent including the wide variety of pathology, high volume, structured didactics and outside of work having the opportunity to further my education in my home state.
