Why did I choose Atlas MedStaff: 

I am the Co-Founder of Atlas MedStaff, so I guess Atlas chose me in a way. I always knew there was a better way, and I strive every day to make our industry better in that image.

I started in the travel nurse staffing industry since 2004 as a recruiter. In late 2011/early 2012 Atlas MedStaff was born with a vision different than anything that had every been seen in the industry to date. Focus on the end user, the traveler in the hospital providing patient care. That shift in mindset made all the difference for Atlas.

I’m a business owner, investor, social media junkie, Star Wars nerd, and the office receptionist. I’m also a father of three and happily married for nearly 20 years.

With a focus on creating a positive culture and giving traveling healthcare professionals an awesome experience, Atlas is changing the healthcare staffing industry one traveler at a time.

Pets:

Jenny and I have had dogs during our entire time together. Rescue dog to be more specific. Right now we have two, Scrappy Doo, a terrier mix, and Ralph. We thought Ralph was a Terrier mix when we adopted him, but it turns out (after a doggie DNA test) he’s a chihuahua mix.

Hobbies:

I’m a big nerd, always have been. I love all things Star Wars, He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, and GI Joe. When I’m not reading comic books or collecting action figures and baseball cards, I spend my time watching Major League Baseball…and specifically the Chicago Cubs.

Top 3 things on your Bucket List:

1. Visit every major league baseball stadium in the country with my family.

2. Complete my T206 baseball card collection.

3. Go to Octoberfest in Germany.
