I am currently an Associate Professor in the Department of Otolaryngology at UT Health San Antonio. I am a Texas native and completed his medical and residency training at Texas A&M University and the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston, respectively.

During my residency training, I had the opportunity to rotate on the head and neck service at MD Anderson Cancer Center and gained invaluable experience in the multidisciplinary care of head and neck cancer patients. He then pursued a fellowship in advanced head and neck surgical oncology at Oregon Health and Science University in Portland, Oregon.

I treat both benign and malignant disorders of the head and neck, and I have specific clinical interest in transoral robotic surgery (TORS) and the surgical management of thyroid and parathyroid disorders. My academic interests include quality and outcomes in head and neck cancer treatment, head and neck endocrine surgery, and disparities in healthcare delivery.
