Why did you decide to work at the University of Minnesota? It was a fantastic opportunity to join an institution with a storied history in Neurology and with a growing Pediatric Neurology group, while also moving closer to family!

What are most looking forward to in MN? I'm most looking forward to all of the outdoor activities, from going to parks and lakes in the summer to skiing and ice skating in the winter.

If you weren't a physician, you would be... Child Life Specialist or Wildlife Photographer
