Location: Des Moines, Iowa

Personal Bio: I am contacting seeking employment as a foot and ankle surgeon upon completion of my fellowship in July of 2021. It is my aim to serve my future community as a physician with the integrity, work ethic, and family values that have served me throughout my entire life. I am currently the chief resident at the Franciscan Foot and Ankle Institute and will be completing a competitive foot and ankle orthopedic fellowship at the Rubin Institute of Advanced Orthopedics next year with focus on limb reconstruction. I became a surgeon with a passion to help patients achieve the lives they aspire to with a focus in my career on patient centeredness, excellent surgical skills, innovation, and leadership; which is exemplified throughout my curriculum vitae. The diversity of my training has offered education in conservative care, forefoot,rearfoot, and ankle pathology including sports medicine, trauma, minimally invasive surgery, elective reconstruction,arthroscopy, total ankle replacement, external fixation, peripheral nerve injury, lower extremity muscle flaps, and limb deformity correction. My unique skillset with a broad range of experience would compliment any practice with the ability to retain all foot and ankle pathology. I would relish the opportunity to share with your organization my entire portfolio which contains detailed information regarding my experiences including a cover letter and detailed surgical training information highlighting my skill set. I hope you will consider me as an addition to your team and would greatly appreciate a chance to discuss the benefits of adding a foot and ankle surgeon with my training. Thank you for your time and consideration, I look forward to hearing from you.
