I am a sports enthusiast who enjoys running and tennis in my free time. Despite being raised in Florida, I have taken up skiing and cheering on the Patriots now that I am a New Englander. I embrace the philosophy of keeping athletes in action, and exhausting conservative measures in order to keep them on the field. However, I also understand the need for surgical intervention in specific situations after careful consideration of the alternatives.
