PA School: Concordia University of Wisconsin

Undergraduate: University of Wisconsin-La Crosse

Hometown: Racine, Wisconsin

Hobbies, facts, and interests: I love playing and watching sports, hiking, hanging out with friends, four-wheeling, experiencing new things, and just being outside.

Why Fresno: We chose Fresno because the hospital is a level 1 trauma and burn center and it is a longer rotation with opportunities in other areas pertinent to the ED.  Other reasons we chose Fresno are that my wife and I wanted to go somewhere we have never been before and move outside our comfort zone to the West Coast.  We are also excited to explore the National Parks around Fresno.
