What I like best about working at Middlesex…

I am very new here, but having the opportunity to meet, work with, and learn from people at different levels of their professional and educational journey was a big draw to Middlesex.

My favorite thing to do with residents is…

One of my passions is in office procedures and I enjoy doing procedures with the residents - it is a great way for all of us to continue learning new techniques.

What I do for fun…

I enjoy doing pretty much anything active, my top three at the moment being basketball, running, and biking. I enjoy spending time with my wife and two children as well as reading new books (preferably non-fiction).”
