    Biography

    What I Do
    I believe that excellent medical care begins with listening. My philosophy of care is to meet patients where they are, to form a partnership with them to promote health, wellness, and hope. My special clinical interests are pediatrics, obstetrics/gynecology, geriatrics, diabetes care, preventative medicine, and addiction medicine.

    Why I Love My Work
    Each patient is unique in their own way, and I enjoy getting to know every person and partnering with them to deliver high-quality medical care. My favorite part about practicing family medicine is getting to know families and serving them across generations.

    I chose CentraCare, after my excellent experience as a family medicine resident in St. Cloud. I am thrilled to have the chance to continue to serve patients in our community while giving back to our residency program.

    Getting to Know Me
    Outside of work, I enjoy staying active by running, playing basketball, soccer, golf, and pickleball. I am an avid reader of both fiction and nonfiction. My wife and I have three children together, and as a family we enjoy playing board games and spending time outdoors.
