I'm originally from Decatur, IL. After finishing my pre-med studies at Indiana State University, I received my medical degree from Southern Illinois University - School of Medicine in Springfield, IL. I completed my orthopedic surgery residency in Springfield, IL at the Southern Illinois University program.

My special interests include joint reconstruction of the hip, knee, and shoulder, sports medicine, and trauma.

In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family, and enjoy golf and working outdoors.
