Che, como andas? I graduated
from UCLA Medical School back in 1991 to start my emergency residency
training at UNM. The very high reputation of the department, the pathology
in the ED, patient demographics, the down to earth personalities of those in
the program, and the geographic desirability made me choose UNM above the
rest, and we have been happy with staying here since.
I like teaching, and have
been successfully enjoying it. Innovation and improvisation is one thing
that I use in many of my teaching methods. Our Wilderness Medicine elective
has enjoyed unprecedented national success, and it usually takes my whole
March to teach the class. In fact, we will be taking our course to Hawaii
and Roatan (Honduras) for our dive medicine conferences, and
Ecuador
for our high altitude wilderness medicine conferences. I have also had the
opportunity to work in hospitals and clinics throughout Latin America,
Asia, and Africa. If you end up here, I might send you to Guanajuato, Mexico
or Buenos Aires, Argentina (for our Pan American Collaborative Emergency
Medicine Development Program, dedicated to propagating the specialty in
Latin America), Kathmandu, Nepal (to help with an international elective) or
Phnom Penh, Cambodia to assess the education of future Cambodian physicians
(who will replace those eliminated during the Khmer Rouge regime).
If you prefer, I could send
you out in the desert with a compass, a flint and steel, and have you find
your way back using the navigation skills I teach in some classes. Or you
can sit with me and talk of ultrasound while drinking a strong brew of
Turkish coffee.
My wife and I hang out in
our free time teaching our young daughters how to ski, mountain run, climb
big walls, strange language speaking, and other various things. Our dog
Fishbreath often goes with us. Chances are you will see me a lot in ER
shifts and activities and then...poof! I
am off to another country
propagating our residency to interested listeners for long spells of time. I
can help you overcome boredom!

Hello, I
am originally from Seattle, WA and have been in Albuquerque since 1995. I love
the mountains and open spaces of New Mexico, and that fact that our department
is relaxed, friendly and produces great academic research, great clinical care
and high quality residency graduates. My research interests are listed above but
my main focus is really on high quality education. Please email me or see our
new web page if you have any questions. Outside of work, I love spending time
with my wife and three kids, trail running (check out the La Luz run…www.aroadrun.org
), road racing, mountain biking, hiking, travel and music.

Having completed my
residency at UNM in 2005, I was sad to leave beautiful Albuquerque for 3
years to move to Tennessee. Thankfully, my wife and I are now back
and enjoying the great mountains, fantastic weather and a beautiful new
baby girl. This is a challenging place to work, and a GREAT
residency program. The best part of the job has to be the people
we work with – faculty, residents, support staff, nurses and techs are
all outstanding
