I have practiced family medicine in Central Vermont since 1998. Before family medicine, I served in the U.S. Navy as an Undersea Medical Officer, where I met my wife while stationed at La Maddalena, Italy. I have over 20 years of experience teaching medicine as an assistant professor at University of Vermont. I also serve as a physician volunteer with the People's Health and Wellness Clinic in Barre. I believe in the importance of giving back to the community through volunteer work. In my spare time, I enjoy the outdoors and reading non-fiction literature.
