About Me

I am a fellowship-trained, board-certified surgeon. I specialize in colon and rectal surgery for patients with inflammatory bowel disease and colorectal disease. 

I’m a Penn State graduate and Pennsylvania native who enjoys developing long-term relationships with my patients and working as a team with their other providers. I’m especially interested in organ-preserving treatments for rectal cancer.
