I grew up in Oak Ridge, TN but I have lived in Knoxville for over 10 years. I attended medical school at the Knoxville branch of Lincoln Memorial University—DeBusk College of Osteopathic Medicine. I was drawn to North Knoxville Medical Center’s Internal Medicine program because it offers excellent training in the community I call home. The opportunity to stay close to my family while building a strong foundation in internal medicine makes it an ideal fit for both my personal and professional goals. I plan to work in outpatient primary care after completing residency.
