I am originally from Georgia and the eastern united states. I moved often growing up due to my father\u2019s employment. My mother is from the Denver area and I spent a lot of time in Colorado growing up \u2013 it was always a dream to make it my permanent home. I developed an interest in medicine early on through high school anatomy and science courses. I then obtained a Bachelors of Science at the University of Tennessee and then worked as support staff in a surgery unit, which exposed me to the field of Otolaryngology. I entered medical school with a high interest in pursuing the field and matched at The Ohio State University for residency, a top 10 training program. I am fully trained and enjoy all areas of ENT, with a particular interest in rhinology and sinus surgery, ear disorders, head and neck surgery, and sleep medicine. I was fully trained and certified in Inspire Implant Surgery, a novel treatment option for sleep apnea in patients who cannot tolerate CPAP. I have worked hard to get to this point and feel privileged for the opportunity to provide care to patients. My goal is to provide exceptional care and develop physician-patient relationships based on trust and compassion!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
