I’m in my 40s, and my journey has been defined by service, both to my country and to the people I care for. As a Navy veteran and ER nurse, I’ve had the privilege of serving on five continents and responding to some of the world’s most challenging healthcare crises, including being one of the first nurses to encounter Covid-19 in Queens, NY. Beyond my nursing career, I’m an accomplished athlete, a dedicated husband, and a proud father.

In 2009, I enlisted in the Navy Hospital Corps, where I developed a deep commitment to healthcare. Using the G.I. Bill, I earned my BSN and transitioned into the ER, where I continue to make a difference every day. Through my podcast, Nurse Dad, I share my experiences and insights, offering motivation and support to healthcare professionals, military families, and anyone striving for balance and growth.
