Why did you choose a career in pediatrics?

I chose a career in pediatrics, because I love working with kids and watching them grow and develop. Kids bring so much energy and passion to everything they do, which makes everything fun and exciting! Helping a child learn something new is extremely rewarding, and seeing the positive impact our help can make on families is such a gratifying feeling.

What do you like to do in your free time?

In my free, I enjoy running, playing baseball, reading, fishing, hunting and spending time with family.
