Working as a physician has been my childhood dream, hoping to be able to help people as they faced illness and all the challenges that come with it. Before medical school, I worked in an oncologist's office as a CNA and data manager, and I quickly fell in love with oncology patients. After residency here at the University of Utah, I was fortunate enough to work as a hospitalist on the Bone Marrow Transplant service here at the Huntsman Cancer Hospital. Outside of work, I am married to my soulmate and we are raising five amazing children, ranging from ages 4 to 14.
