I have always been interested in science and health. I received my Bachelor of Science in kinesiology and became intrigued with podiatry when I realized how intricate the anatomy is and how important the feet are for physical health and activities. I went to podiatry school in Chicago and completed a three year foot and ankle residency at Scripps Mercy Hospital in San Diego, CA and Kaiser Permanente in Sacramento, CA. I grew up in North Dakota.Healthcare is a necessity for human survival and can enhance, change and heal us. Our experiences are deeply impacted by the care we receive from health professionals.

For elective procedures conservative treatment is exhausted prior to moving forward with surgical interventions.Special Clinical Interests: Foot and Ankle Trauma, Sports Medicine, Limb Salvage, Foot and Leg Wound Care, Custom Foot Orthotics and Biomechanics.Why I Became a Medical Provider: Podiatry allows me to specialize in the surgical and non-surgical care of my patients.
