Why I love to teach
I’m a vascular neurologist and neurohospitalist serving as a Neurology Subspecialty Coordinator at the Grand Strand Medical Center in South Carolina. I was a neuroscience curriculum coordinator at St. Luke’s / Temple Medical School, where I developed my passion for teaching neurology. I’m a fellow of the American Academy of Neurology and in my spare time, I like to play guitar and go fly fishing.
