Personal Interests

I enjoy spending quality time with family and friends. I'm passionate about outdoor activities like saltwater fishing and bird hunting. Music is a big part of my life, and I love playing guitar, saxophone, drums, and bass. I'm also a dedicated FSU football fan and enjoy playing golf, though my golf game could use some work. Fun fact: I used to play guitar in a heavy metal band.

Care Philosophy

Rooted in primary care, I have developed a patient-centered philosophy. I believe in truly understanding each patient's goals and challenges to deliver personalized care. By blending evidence-based medicine with a holistic perspective, I am committed to preventing injuries, promoting optimal recovery, and enabling a safe return to sport.
