About Me

My philosophy of care is to treat all of my patients like family. Every patient is unique, and careful listening helps me empower patients to develop an individualized treatment plan together. Through my sports medicine training, I have experienced the power of both surgical and non-operative techniques in helping patients feel well after an injury. From my passion for the outdoors, I’ve learned the importance of an active lifestyle, and am thrilled when I can help patients achieve their goals.

When I’m not taking care of patients, I am outdoors. I love hiking, cycling, hunting, fishing, and skiing. I am delighted to call Utah home. From professional athletes to weekend warriors, I am excited to take care of all of the wonderful people that call Utah home as well.
