I was born in Fort Atkinson, WI and spent most of my childhood and teenage years growing up in Delavan, Wisconsin. From a young age I enjoyed drawing and crafting, and then later building and painting model airplanes. I swam competitively from my childhood years through high school, and also liked bicycling. During my junior year of high school, I lived a wonderful and educational year in Santos, Brasil as an American Field Service (AFS) foreign exchange student. I always enjoyed science, and decided to attend the University of Wisconsin to major in biochemistry. I decided to attend medical school when it seemed like I needed something more fulfilling than working in a lab. Surgery was a natural choice because it allowed me to work more with my hands. Once in my surgical residency at the the Medical College of Wisconsin, it became clear that plastic surgery was where I needed to be; this would allow me the opportunity to take a creative and detailed approach to patient care, and allow me to prosper. I did my plastic surgery fellowship at The Ohio State University in Columbus. I then moved back to Wisconsin because of this wonderful job opportunity, and to be closer to family.
