I was born on a Texas Air Force base while my dad was serving as an Air Force surgeon. We returned to California for my father to complete his Neurosurgery Residency. I spent my early years in Westwood while my father was a resident and professor of Neurosurgery at UCLA.

Having been exposed to medicine at an early age, I wanted to emulate my father. We spent many days rounding together and at that time I was even able to see him operate. Obviously, this had a profound influence on my decision-making. In addition, my great grandfather, and grandfather were also medical doctors so in many ways it seemed natural to pursue medicine.

The most important factor in the doctor-patient relationship is great communication and parallel goals. I hope to create a stress-free opportunity for the patients to learn about their injuries and treatment options. I love practicing medicine because it’s a tactile application of your life view. In my case; to serve others and do what is essential.

In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my wife and three boys. Outside of medicine, our lives revolve around the ocean. We surf almost daily. In addition, we are avid travelers and we particularly enjoy visiting the South Pacific and Central America. Outside of surfing we also love fishing and spearfishing in our local waters. Our boys love to catch fish and make their own sushi. Throughout the summer months, we spend time on our boat with friends and family.
