About Me
I grew up in New Rochelle, NY and originally went to Emerson College where I studied cinematography. I later went on to complete my Post-bacc at Columbia University before going to med school at Hofstra University. Right before medical school, I joined the United States Navy Medical Corps and remain on active duty. For my first duty station, I completed Emergency Medicine residency at Naval Medical Center Portsmouth, and have recently finished a two year billet at 3rd Medical Battalion in Okinawa, Japan. I've enjoyed this whirlwind adventure with my wife Laura and our three kids Scarlett, Ryan, and Lily.

Why Emory EM Med Tox?
This program offers a unique intersection of clinical toxicology and public health that I find both personally fascinating and advantageous for the needs of the Navy. In addition, I was blown away by the kind and knowledgeable faculty. Finally, the CDC offers unique opportunities to learn and work alongside global leaders in their respective fields.
Five-year Plan
I plan to continue to support the mission of the Navy and help serve our nation's service members, dependents, and veterans through the lens of toxicology.
