My parents were both physicians, and seeing their impact in the community where I grew up inspired me. After college, I traveled and worked abroad, but I returned to medicine with a desire to do something useful and beneficial for others.What I find most rewarding about neurosurgery is understanding what gives my patients meaning and purpose in life and doing my best to protect and preserve their quality of life.I have specialized training in the treatment of brain tumors, including tumors within the brain itself, skull base tumors and pituitary tumors. I have a dedicated interest in techniques that maximize safe tumor removal while preserving brain function, including both awake and asleep intraoperative mapping. I have specialized training in minimally-invasive, endoscopic-assisted approaches to the skull base for treating pituitary tumors.During medical school, I rotated with a country doctor at a rural hospital. That experience taught me that every patient is part of a community and that caring for a patient's condition also involves caring for the whole person. It reinforced the importance of listening and understanding who a patient is beyond the exam room to find the right balance between the technical capabilities of our profession and the reality of preserving a patient's humanity.Outside of work, I enjoy cycling, skiing and spending time with my wife and daughter.
