"After completing our residency training in Sacramento, my wife, Casie, and I were thrilled to move to San Diego. I have spent the majority of my life in Southern California or Las Vegas, so it was really nice to move back south. We look forward to building our careers here and eventually starting a family. I chose to practice pediatrics because I truly appreciate the responsibility of caring for children and promoting their well-being. My other professional interests include a focus on preventative medicine and providing vaccine education for parents. When not at work, I enjoy spending time with my wife and our dog, watching/playing sports, trying out new restaurants and watching movies."
