Biography

My wife and I have three amazing children ranging in age from eight years old to three years old.  They seem to surprise us every day, and we learn about ourselves constantly while trying to keep up with them.   We’ve lived in Twin Falls for thirteen years, and have a love of all outdoor family activities including skiing, camping, and general adventuring are some of the reasons we want to live here.

I love to ski and run.  I thought I might be a ski instructor and a fishing guide at one point, but then I met my wife and decided to settle down in Idaho.  I’ve never regretted this, and I still ski and fish.  I don’t like to wake up early and run, but I do and I’m glad!

Working at FHS is an amazing opportunity for me to provide medical care to people from diverse backgrounds in a supportive environment.  I particularly love providing obstetric care to expectant mothers, and working to deliver healthy babies has been one of the most rewarding aspects of my career.
