How did you fall in love with your field?
I wanted to be a doctor since I was a little kid. I fell in love with cardiology specifically because I found the movement of the heart along with its valves fascinating. When this is coupled with the resilience and steadfastness of the organ, which beats some 2 billion times during an average lifetime, it's hard to imagine anything more inspiring. Interventional Cardiology allows for an opportunity to immediately make a difference in a patient's care. We continually walk a tight rope in the cardiac catheterization laboratory; a voyage I'm thrilled to be on, and one through which I feel most privileged to have our remarkable team and crew with me at all times.
Three things people may not know about you:
- I love playing football. I've traded in my shoulder pads for flag football though, for obvious reasons.
- I'm a huge nerd for all things space, time and celestial.
- I love playing video games. I'm rarely without an old school Super Mario, Mega Man or Toy Story T-shirt on underneath my scrubs (a big shout out to my wife, for indulging me!).
