Philosophy of Care
I feel humbled and honored to serve my patients and their loved ones as my work life mission. I strive to provide clear information and treatments personalized to everyone I meet based on their health, lifestyle, and goals.
I am also always in search of a brighter future for patients with cancer. As the Site Research Leader for Minnesota Oncology, I coordinate the clinical trials for our practice to bring the newest treatment options for our patients and to advance treatments and find cures for our future generations. It is my goal to get patients back to doing what they want to do the most, whether it is a walk around the lake, dinner with friends, or tending to the garden.

In my spare time, my wife and I love to travel with our small rescue dog. We spend as much time as possible playing music and enjoying the outdoors with friends.
