The patients we see promote great discussions and provide an active learning environment that builds upon their didactic knowledge, but in a more dynamic and applicable manner. Within my APPE teaching, students and residents get to autonomy to select and follow patients with infectious diseases and/or antimicrobial stewardship problems. The end result is that Butler COPHS students receive the most current practice-based knowledge at the time it is delivered. As a teacher, I get to bring this practice into the classroom. Being a clinician keeps me actively involved in patient care and on the cutting edge of clinical practice.
I love my role as a clinician and teacher.

With that I do enjoy audiobooks and podcasts and I regularly participate in web-based seminars/podcasts that promote my personal and professional growth. I would love to say I am an avid reader, but I am not. I enjoy spending time with family and friends, exploring the field of biohacking and personal development. I am happily married to my wife Carrie and we have 2 children, Allison and Drew. I serve on several COPHS, many Community Health Network, and several national committees that focus on or utilize my skills in infectious diseases pharmacy. I have authored independent research papers, review articles and book chapters in the area of infectious diseases (see CV). My research is focused in answering clinical questions as well as filling gaps in literature, at the practice and beyond. My area of active research is in infectious diseases clinical and epidemiological research. I serve as a co-funded faculty with an active practice site at Community Health Network where I am the pharmacy Infectious Diseases Specialist and Co-Chair of the Antimicrobial Stewardship Committee. I accepted my current position at Butler in 2005 and was promoted to Associate Professor with Tenure in 2010. I completed a 2-year Antifungal Pharmacology Fellowship at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) in 2005. I completed a PGY-2 Residency in Infectious Diseases at West Virginia Hospitals and Clinics in 2003. I completed a PGY-1 Residency at Palmetto Richland Memorial Hospital in Columbia SC in 2002. I graduated from West Virginia University School of Pharmacy in 2001.
