2026-2027 Orthopedics APC Fellow
I studied Biochemistry at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and continued my education at UW for my Physician Assistant training. I’ve always been drawn to orthopedics because it focuses on restoring function and helping people return to the activities that matter most to them. Whether that’s getting back to sports or simply moving comfortably again, it’s an especially rewarding area of medicine to be a part of.
I chose to pursue an orthopedic fellowship because I value strong, hands-on training and wanted to build a solid foundation early in my career. I’m especially excited about the opportunity to learn within the TRIA and HealthPartners system, given the variety of experiences and mentorship available. I’m also looking forward to exploring different areas within orthopedics to find where I can make the greatest impact.
I’m originally from Wisconsin, where I learned to appreciate being outdoors in just about any weather, particularly skiing in the winter. Outside of medicine, I enjoy staying active, spending time with family, cooking, and I’ve really enjoyed exploring the Minneapolis food scene.
