I grew up in Casper, WY and often refer to it as a “big city” which gives some people a laugh. I enjoy the slower pace of small-town life and the people that accompany it. Although I have no direct ties to the Palouse I hope to become a part of the community which has already been quite welcoming. 

I joined the WSU Family Medicine residency August 2024. I finished my additional sports medicine training in June 2024 in Omaha, NE. I see the residency as a tremendous opportunity to train doctors of the future and improve the health and wellness of the community in a rural setting. I hope that my background and expertise can improve musculoskeletal care in the surrounding area.

Personal Interests

My fiancé and I are to be married in June of this year. We love to travel and spend time with family. We enjoy cooking and trying different recipes together.  I love spending time honing my golf game while getting exercise and enjoying the outdoors. I also enjoy playing board games and lawn games with friends.
