I am originally from Lakeville, Minnesota where I lived until moving to attend the University of North Dakota for my undergraduate education. After receiving my bachelor’s degree, I attended Kent State University College of Podiatric Medicine in Cleveland, Ohio. I went on to complete my residency at the University of Louisville. After residency, I furthered my training by completing a fellowship in reconstructive foot and ankle surgery with limb salvage at the University of Louisville. I am board qualified by the American Board of Foot and Ankle Surgery. I am currently an Assistant Professor in the Department of Orthopedics at the University of Louisville and Associate Director Podiatric Residency and Fellowship Programs. I actively participate in research and have been published in numerous journals.
