Bio of Self: I was born and raised in West Virginia. Always knew I wanted to help people in a very impactful way. Pursued medicine from a young age. Found my calling as a future Anesthesiologist in the process. While very challenging, it’s one of the most rewarding choices I’ve made in life.  

What attracted you to WVU Anesthesia for residency? Close to home. I could tell the people working here were comfortable and happy. The staff I met were as inviting and fantastic to work with as they seemed on first impression. I have no regrets coming here.

What makes our program unique? Actively growing program focused on providing more services (and in turn more academic/clinical experiences) including heart/kidney transplant implementation. 

What do you like about living in Morgantown? Plenty here to do and close to places capable of keeping the downtime exciting.
