Overview

I am an infectious disease specialist, and I care for a wide variety of viral, fungal, and bacterial diseases with a focus on persons with HIV. I also provide HIV prevention through pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and post-exposure prophylaxis. I strive to create an open and trusting relationship with all my patients. I also teach medical students, residents, and fellows. Outside of clinic, I enjoy hiking, bicycling, and playing music.
