01 / THE PERSON BEHIND THE WORK
Medicine is the foundation.
Curiosity keeps me moving.
A practicing physician with an interest in what comes next—for patients, for learners, and for the way we understand a life.
My work spans hospital medicine, telehealth, health technology, and writing. After completing internal medicine residency at MacNeal Hospital in 2016, I served as a lead hospitalist with Southwest Medical Associates–Optum. I later founded United Medical Group and YourMD.Online.
Today, I combine inpatient practice in Washington and Oregon with my work as medical director and lead physician at YourMD Telehealth. Beyond the clinic, I write the Longevity and MCAT Mastery series and develop tools that connect medical knowledge with everyday use.
