General Info

I am a board-certified neurosurgeon currently serving on active duty under the established military-civilian partnership between the United States Army and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. My academic interests include cranial/spine neurotrauma along with pathologies of the skull base. This has led to numerous publications that have been both locally and nationally recognized by the Florida Neurosurgical Society, the National Injury Prevention Foundation, the American Academy of Neurological Surgeons, and the Congress of Neurological Surgeons. My military career began in 2012. My most notable duty station was at Tripler Army Medical Center where I became the Chief of Neurosurgery, Section Chief of Skull Base Neurosurgery, and the Neurosurgery Trauma Liaison. I have been awarded the Meritorious Service Medal, the Army Commendation Medal, the National Defense Service Medal, the Global War on Terrorism Service Medal, the Armed Forces Service Medal, the Humanitarian Service Medal, and the Overseas Service Ribbon. As the treatment of neurosurgical diseases can be frightening at times for the patient, I will not only bring surgical expertise, I will also provide genuine compassion and empathy to my patients and their family members. I look forward to the privilege of managing your care.
