I grew up near Bryan, OH, but I have lived in the Mansfield area for 22 years. I have two children in college. I also have two Labrador retrievers. I decided to become a doctor when I was in high school. I earned my medical degree from the Medical College of Ohio in Toledo, OH, and completed my pediatrics residency Indiana University in Indianapolis, IN. I am certified by the American Board of Pediatrics and I am a member of the American Academy of Pediatrics.
