I grew up in Central California where I developed a love for nature and specifically reptiles. Venomous animals, in particular, have always interested me. Emergency medicine was a natural choice for to merge my passions of herpetology and medicine. Practicing in Arizona and North Carolina has allowed me to gain significant experience in the management of reptile and arthropod envenomations. I venture into the field, whenever possible, to observe and study reptiles. Highlights include finding most of the venomous animals that inhabit the United States as well as finding cobras, kraits, vipers, and many other snakes in Asia. I am very fortunate to be involved with ASF!
