In New Orleans, he worked at the Charity and University hospitals, the Veteran Affairs Hospital, Tulane Medical Center, and the Ochsner Clinic Foundation. He joined the UCLA CARE Clinic as an HIV fellow in 2005 and joined the faculty in 2006. His concentration is HIV primary and preventative care in adults and adolescents.

Further, he is a provider for the LGBT community.

After volunteering with the Clinton Foundation as an HIV mentor in rural Rwanda, he continues to work supporting the clinics with a recent solar power panel installation and starting an HIV-exposed infant nutrition program.
