My goal is to help my patients understand what is happening in regard to their infection, and how it impacts them. When my patients are informed, they can fully participate in the development of a plan that will treat their infection.

I have always had an interest in microbiology, and have a college minor in microbiology. Therefore, infectious diseases was a natural fit for my professional career. 

I love to travel and visit my friends and family in Montana as often as I can.
