About Me

I have enjoyed living in South Florida for the past several years. While not at work, I enjoy spending time with my family, especially in the sun and surf. I enjoy snorkeling, fishing, kayaking, motorsport and traveling; experiencing new cultures and cuisine. I am looking forward to exploring Jacksonville and all it has to offer.

My philosophy of care is rooted in restoring autonomy and quality of life through the intricate art of hand and upper extremity surgery. Our hands are our primary tools for interacting with the world, expressing affection and sustaining our livelihoods, making their function deeply tied to our personal identity. I view my relationship with each patient as a collaborative partnership, built on transparent communication, mutual respect and active listening.
