About
Bio
I was raised in the Chicago suburbs then went to college at Washington University in St. Louis, where I majored in biochemistry. I went to medical school in Dallas, then trained at Duke and Emory. I have been in practice in Mesa since 1995. I am married and have four children. In my spare time outside of work, I enjoy coaching my children in sports, going to the movies, and traveling. I am very interested in the political process, as well. My greatest accomplishments have been my family and establishing electrophysiology as an entity in the East Valley.
