I am an interventional pulmonologist who specializes in lung and trachea conditions.

I do minimally invasive procedures for lung cancer diagnosis and staging.

I'm also medical director of OHSU’s incidental lung nodule program and co-director of lung cancer screening. As such, I have special interest in finding lung cancer early.

I provide:

• Robotic navigation bronchoscopy, to diagnose lung nodules
• Endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS), to diagnose lung cancer and other conditions
• Therapeutic bronchoscopy, to treat blocked airways
• Ultrasound-guided thoracentesis, to diagnose or treat fluid buildup in the chest
• Tunneled pleural catheter placement, to treat fluid buildup in the chest

I spent six years as director of interventional pulmonology and lung cancer screening programs at the Richmond Veterans Administration Medical Center in Virginia. I joined OHSU in 2022.

It’s important to me to provide patients and families with empathy, expertise and reassurance at a stressful, vulnerable time. I enjoy working as part of a team with other specialists to provide high-quality care.

When my wife and I get a break from our busy work lives, we love to spend time with our four kids, enjoying beaches along the Oregon coast during summer. I also enjoy cooking at home, running, surfing and playing soccer and basketball with my son.
