Profile

Patients, nature and the human spirit inspire me on a daily basis. I strongly prioritize the patient experience and make great strides to tailor my anesthetic plan to each patient's individual unique needs down to the last detail. I am also an avid connoisseur of new evidence-based research along with ERAS protocols and am always looking to incorporate these into my practice.  I also utilize many regional anesthesia techniques (over 13 blocks) to help alleviate patients' pain to use minimal to no opioids. I am also pursuing the best techniques to prevent and eliminate nausea and vomiting during and after anesthesia, especially in those populations at highest risk. 

Interests & Activities

I'm an avid consumer of high-intensity interval training and weight lifting (typically with Jillian Michaels). I also enjoy Wildlife conservation, nature walks, history, restaurants, museums, jazz, film, and Broadway plays/musicals. I am also an owner and supporter of Alaskan Malamute dog rescue.  My dog is in utopia and rightfully at home in Alaska.
