During residency training, he performed more than 1500 procedures, from elective bunion and hammertoe surgery to complex rearfoot and ankle reconstruction. In addition, he also presented multiple research projects nationally and lectured at various podiatric surgical conferences throughout the Mid-Atlantic (United States). Following the completion of his training, he relocated to Maryland and made it his home.
