Why did you choose to become part of Michigan State University Neurology?

Location of program.  Interaction with faculty and residents when I was a medical student.

If you were not a doctor, what would you have chosen as a career?

This is a little bit of a loaded question for me since I spent almost 8 years in the business field.   But if I were to do this whole thing over again I probably would have gone into forestry.

Extracurricular interests and activities:

Hunting, Fishing, Golf, Snowmobiling, and last but not least Spending time with my family and friends.
