Clinical Interests
My main interests include telemedicine, dermatologic surgical procedures (non-Mohs), lasers, phototherapy, vitiligo, psoriasis and clinical-pathologic correlation in complicated cases.

Care Philosophy
I believe that my patients should participate in making decisions for their own care and try to empower the patient with knowledge to better care for their skin conditions. I like to offer each patient options and then we decide together what works best for them.

Personal Interests
I enjoy archery, dancing, photography, painting, volleyball, skiing/snowboarding and hiking.

Volunteer Activities
I volunteer through my church and Boy Scouts of America to help in the community.
