Meet the Chiefs
Welcome to the St. Vincent Internal Medicine Residency! As the chief residents for this year, we are excited to work with our outstanding medical students, residents, and faculty. Residency is a challenging time in every physician's training, but it is the launching pad for a successful career in medicine. As chief residents, we aim to continue the tradition at St. Vincent of promoting a supportive and encouraging atmosphere, all while making patient care our priority. We believe that St. Vincent is truly an amazing place to train, and we welcome you to our program!

I was born and raised in Indianapolis, Indiana, I stayed in Indiana for undergrad at IU in Bloomington, where I studied biology and Spanish. I then went to Marian University for medical school. I created the Medical Spanish Residency Track here and I'm so excited to get people enrolled for this next year and see it put into action. After residency, I hope to match into a pulmonary critical care fellowship. I chose Ascension St. Vincent not only because I am a Hoosier at heart, but also because I rotated here as a medical student and felt like it was a perfect fit for me. The acuity of patients in a large level 1 trauma center plus the AMAZING people here really sets this program apart. Outside of medicine, I enjoyed making sourdough bread, traveling, watching early 2000's rom-coms, and cooking. My husband and I have a wonderful fur baby named Reggie, who is a miniature goldendoodle.

I was raised in Berea, KY, a small town about 30 minutes south of Lexington, KY. I completed my undergraduate education at Western Kentucky University and medical school at the Kentucky College of Osteopathic Medicine. I have had a strong passion for cardiovascular medicine since my medical school cardiology rotation, and look forward to going through the cardiology fellowship match process this year! I enjoy teaching and mentoring medical students and interns. Outside of the hospital, I enjoy spending time with my fiancée Karlie and our two dogs: Blue and Lucy! I am a big sports fan and love to travel! One of my goals is to visit every national park in the US! I chose St. Vincent because of the wonderful culture and learning environment we have here. No matter what career you want to go into, we have the patient and pathology diversity, clinical faculty, resources, and mentors to get you where you want to be. Our IM residency program here at St. Vincent is truly special and I'm looking forward to serving as one of our chief residents this year.

Howdy! I am a simple guy who was born and raised in Bluffton, IN. I completed my undergraduate degree at the University of Saint Francis in Fort Wayne, IN and then came down to Indianapolis where I went to medical school at MU-COM. I am happily married to my wife Tori, and we share two beautiful daughters (Izzie and Dottie). We also have a fuzzball of a cat named “Darly,” that we rescued back when I was still in medical school. I originally started residency with the thought of wanting to become an infectious disease specialist, but fell in love with primary care after practicing in the resident clinic. My plan is to practice as a primary care provider with a specific passion for treatment of hepatitis C. In my spare time, I enjoy trying to stay active and exercise. I also love to cross-stitch which I try to do in the evenings when I have time. Although I plan on moving back to Bluffton upon completion of my training, I am very thankful for my opportunity to train at St Vincent. It is a good balance of having the feel of a community hospital, but also the complexity of a level 1 trauma and tertiary center for the entire state. This has provided me with ample opportunity to develop myself as a practitioner and build my confidence providing complex and compassionate care to my patients.

Hey everyone! A little about me is that I was born and raised in Fort Wayne, IN. I went to Indiana University for undergrad, received a Masters in physiology at Indiana University/ Purdue University in Indianapolis, and then I went to medical school at the Kentucky College of Osteopathic Medicine. I am married and we have one dog, Nala, that we rescued while we were in Kentucky. In my free time I enjoy golfing and spending time with friends and family. I have also been known to keep the best lawn in the neighborhood. Professionally, I am applying for fellowship in Cardiology and I enjoy teaching. I wanted to come to St. Vincent for a few reasons. First, we are a large tertiary care center that serves a diverse range of patients that allows for exposure to a wide variety of medical conditions and pathology. More importantly, is the sense of respect and camaraderie within our residency, fostering a welcoming environment focused on patient care, education, and resident well-being. I feel as though our leadership and faculty members truly advocate for us. Lastly, our program has a strong track record of guiding residents toward successful careers in primary care, hospital medicine, and fellowships. Welcome!
