Biography:
I am a Physician Assistant as an emergency room and hospitalist provider. I care for all emergent cases and hospitalized patients in coordination with our hospital team. I have training in emergency care/critical care and have most recently worked as an emergency room provider full-time at the University of Utah. I had a full career as a Firefighter/Paramedic and administrative officer with Salt Lake County Fire Department before matriculating to PA school. Part of my clinical experience and desire to work with patients stems from my time flying aeromedical transport for 5 years as a flight paramedic with AirMed at the University of Utah and seeing the importance of access to quality medical care. I currently teach graduate medical students in physical exam and clinical education. I am passionate about helping others and understand the unique challenges of rural health and I look forward to providing quality care for the residents in Kemmerer. Please reach out to say hello when you see me.
