Biography

I was born in Jacksonville, Florida, and raised in San Antonio, Texas. I moved to California for my residency at Loma Linda University Children’s Hospital, where I met my wife and fell in love with her and California. I am the eldest son of parents who are both physicians. Observing them in their practice was very influential in my decision to become a doctor. Their compassion and drive in making a real difference in the lives of people is a model that I have strived to emulate. I have been blessed with a beautiful, supportive wife and two wonderful kids.
