Learning and the Future
Well, probably the most significant thing was
learning how to be a physician. I’ve lived here for
over six years now. My wife Ellen and I met here
and were married here. As far as medicine and
research go, I’ve learned almost everything I know
here.
I’d like to see my current project through to com-
pletion and finish a few smaller research projects
as well. As far as the long term, I see myself
pursuing an academic career in cardiac surgery.
If my career stays on its current path, I see myself
finding a faculty position in 2022 or so.
Hobbies
I golf and run, although not competitively. I really
enjoy fixing things around the house – there’s
nothing better than a job well done. Ellen and
I recently discovered that we both really enjoy
assembling furniture! I also like to read outside
of work – primarily biographies, but also politics,
economics and history.
