I grew up in New York City and Westchester, NY before completing my undergrad at Cornell University and medical school at SUNY Upstate Medical University. Being part of Cru in college shaped my faith journey, challenging me to steward my life missionally, and is also where I met my wife, Valerie (married January 2026)! We hope to live as Christ’s representatives working among those least reached by the gospel, wherever God may lead us. I’m so excited and thankful for the opportunity to train at IHI with others who are committed to sharing the love of Jesus through medicine! In my free time, I enjoy playing chess,  cooking (and eating), playing piano, learning martial arts and watching movies.
