About Me

Prior to moving to Jacksonville, I spent the past six years working at the University of Virginia. I’m looking forward to Florida’s year-round warm weather! In our spare time, my wife and I enjoy trying new restaurants, traveling, and outdoor activities.

I strongly believe in a personalized approach to treating cancer. My philosophy of care is to listen to my patients, provide them with relevant information about their disease, discuss all the treatment options, and guide them to make a treatment plan based upon their preferences.
