About Me

I grew up on a farm and worked my way through college slinging pizzas, walking dogs, and assisting with autopsies. I received my M.D. from the University of Chicago-Pritzker School of Medicine and completed my residency in internal medicine at Boston's Beth Israel Hospital. I then took a faculty position at the newly-merged Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, but after two and a half years of commuting in Big Dig traffic with a screaming toddler in tow, I thought I'd try moving back to my home state of South Dakota. I am currently Associate Professor of Internal Medicine and Program Director of the Internal Medicine Residency Program at the Sanford School of Medicine of the University of South Dakota.
