About

Philosophy of Care:
As a Missourian, I am passionate about providing high quality cancer care to the people of my home state. Every person with cancer is unique and deserves an individualized treatment approach; including consideration of immunotherapy, evaluation of candidacy for new precision medicine options through targeted therapies, and addressing the important spiritual and emotional challenges that coincide with the diagnosis of cancer. I consider it an honor to walk alongside my patients on their cancer journey.

Personal Interests

I enjoy spending time with my wife and three children. We can often be found riding bikes around the neighborhood or on the Katy Trail. As a family we love preparing meals, building with Legos, and attending church together. In my free time I like to run, read books, and play the piano and guitar.
