"Ever since I was a little girl, I have been exposed to the medical field. My mother was a nurse and often times had to work weekends and holidays. As a family, we often went to eat with her at the hospital on the days she worked. Being in the hospital and visiting her on the maternity ward sparked my interest in medicine. I loved the idea of caring for other people and I knew there would always be a need for nurses. I visited the campus of University of Pittsburgh and knew instantly that I wanted to study and train at the surrounding world-renowned hospitals. What I want my patients to know about me:I attended the University of Pittsburgh and graduated first in my undergraduate nursing program. I was called the ""Keeper of the Light."" This honor reflected the dedication Florence Nightingale showed her patients while attending wounded soldiers during the nighttime hours. I worked in the intensive care units at Mercy Hospital before going back to school for my master's degree in nursing. During my years attending the University of Pittsburgh, I found an interest and love in caring for the elderly population. What I do when I'm not seeing patients:I am a very active person who does not like to sit still. I am married with three children, and ""relax"" is not a word in my vocabulary. I like fitness and try to stay as active as possible. I volunteer at my children's school and attend as many of their extra curricular activities as possible. I also love animals and have five of my own. I enjoy going to the beach with family, hiking, and will even try camping for a short periods of time.".

My very first job was being an orderly at a local nursing home, when I was in my junior year of high school. I found it to be a very rewarding experience to meet the residents and help care for them. It seemed like I grew as a person by knowing them. I decided to go on to receive a baccalaureate degree in nursing so that I could take on more responsibilities. After nearly two decades in the high-tech area of intensive care, I chose to become a nurse practitioner, where I could expand my skills and have more autonomy. My doctoral degree was the culmination of my academic focus. What I want my patients to know about me:My 4.0 GPA in both my master's and doctoral program reflects a commitment to striving to do the best that I can. If you don't get better, I take it personally. If the fix for your particular situation is not readily apparent, I review literature, speak with colleagues and seek out specialists in order to get the best possible treatment for you. I view many of the patients that I serve as family members because I see them so frequently that we seem to share a common bond.What I do when I'm not seeing patients:My wife of 31 years and I like to travel the world, enjoying the natural scenery of a given area along with its food, people, and other unique features. We also like to go to baseball and football stadiums to see games. I have also made a lifelong commitment to golf, where I practice every day that I can. Hard to imagine now, but I used to be a +7 handicap. I am a father to two adopted cats, Winston and Charlie. I also enjoy reading about World War II Europe. My wife and I like the local shopping and dining experiences of Lancaster County. His top areas of expertise are Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction (HFpEF) and Eyelid Bump.
