I am a fellowship-trained orthopaedic hand and upper extremity surgeon with a focus on helping patients regain comfort, confidence, and function in their daily lives. My practice emphasizes complex wrist and hand reconstruction, peripheral nerve injury, post-traumatic conditions, and work-related injuries, with a commitment to clear communication and shared decision-making. I enjoy collaborating closely with therapists, primary care, and other specialists to build practical, durable treatment plans, from meticulous surgical care to thoughtful rehabilitation. Outside the OR, I’m passionate about surgical education, refining clinical workflows, and continuously integrating new evidence and techniques to improve outcomes for my patients.
