Why I love to teach
With a degree in English Literature under my belt, I studied medicine at Ohio State University before completing an Ultrasound Fellowship at Massachusetts General Hospital. I'm an Associate Professor of Emergency Medicine and Ultrasound Co-Director at Maine Medical Center. I live with my wife and two dogs on a nice chunk of land in southern Maine, love the outdoors, and can almost do the splits.
