About

Clinical interests: Anesthesiology, with a specific focus on critical care. I am drawn to the mechanistic, physiology-driven problem-solving that both fields demand.

Outside of medicine: Spending time with my wife and three kids, and exploring new Korean restaurants and cafes around the Atlanta suburbs as a family.

What drew me to NGMC: I did my Internal Medicine rotation here as a medical student and was deeply impressed by the supportive culture, with attendings and senior residents alike who were generous with their teaching (and I’d be lying if I said the free, high-quality lunch wasn’t a plus.)
