What is the best thing about teaching at AKFMR?

I get to spend my professional time teaching, training, and learning from amazing family medicine residents.

How did you end up in Alaska?

Over two decades ago, I packed everything I owed in my car and drove to Alaska for an adventure. This adventure lead to a new life, a profession that I love, and Alaska becoming my long-time home.
