Fellows | Emergency Medicine Services Fellowship

Rock Climbing, skiing, mountain biking, camping and generally being outside. Now I get to do it all with my 3-year-old daughter

I strongly considered becoming a Flight Nurse, so would probably do that; the romantic in me wants to say I would be become a Maine Guide and take people adventuring in Maine.

Central Provisions, but I have some catching up to do with all the new places to eat!

West Grand Lake, camping on an Island.

Prehospital and interfacility transport, austere critical care, wilderness, and resuscitation. With education and teaching sprinkled in along the way.

We are fond of picking a place along the coast like Owl’s Head or Bremen and checking out the town for the weekend.

: I was an ED nurse (at MMC actually!)

I worked as a laborer at a construction site in high school, was really hard work, and certainly some interesting personalities

My professional journey has been circling southern Maine for some time and after working at MMC as a nurse and getting to know the faculty and staff I knew I had to do everything possible to spend time there as a physician. When the EMS fellowship started a few years ago I immediately knew that was my optimal path. MMC has the exposure to all the things I love about emergency medicine, in a place that I have a deep connection to. Adding the EMS portion highlights how MMC is truly a part of the community and I wanted to train in a place that would embed me in the Maine communities I love much!

I have been told Matt Fox, but secretly wish it was Steve Carell

card and board games, making and discovering new playlists, travelling to new places, and aspiring mixologist

"One of life's quiet excitements is to stand somewhat apart from yourself and watch yourself softly becoming the author of something beautiful even if it is only a floating ash." – Norman MacLean (A River Runs Through It).

EMS, medical education, resuscitation and critical care, prehospital and interfacility transport

I started working as an EMT during undergrad. I also took a year off between undergrad and medical school to complete a teaching fellowship in the Biology Department at Dartmouth.

I first came to MMC as a visiting medical student on an away rotation, and I fell in love with the program, and was fortunate enough to come here for residency. Throughout my time here as a resident, I have worked with and learned from exceptional faculty. The EMS faculty in particular are a very engaged, very knowledgeable group, and the opportunity to continue working with and learning from them was hard to pass up. Additionally, Maine geographically provides such a wide breadth of EMS opportunities, from higher-resource and higher-volume city EMS services to lower-resource services and more rural and remote services. I am also a firm believer in living and training somewhere you enjoy outside of work, and Maine has no shortage of life and wellness outside of work settings.
