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

I chose MSU for several reasons.  I believe it offers the resident the opportunity to train in both the Academic and Private sectors of Neurology.  MSU has a dynamic faculty, amongst whom members have trained at Harvard, Johns Hopkins, Northwestern, and University of Pennsylvania.  East Lansing also is a great Big Ten town which allows me the opportunity to catch college sports, eat good food, and still feel like a college kid sometimes.

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

My dream has always been to play Professional Hockey.

Extracurricular interests and activities:

Hockey, novels, movies, cars, traveling.
