Clinical Interests
I enjoy treating all forms of cancer and benign conditions for which we use radiation. My particular interests are brain, spine, prostate, breast, and thoracic tumors.

Care Philosophy
I strive to offer each of my patients and their families the best possible care. I think this starts with listening and prioritizing their values. Our team then works towards a treatment plan that meets these values while employing current evidenced based practices. I aim to remain available and support my patients and families throughout their treatments and follow-up. My primary practice is located at Cherry Creek Medical Center, and I also spend time at our Anschutz Medical Campus location.
