Curtis was born in Lexington, Kentucky where he lived with his mother and younger sister. He attended the University of Kentucky and earned a degree in chemical engineering with a research focus in biomedical engineering, which inspired him to attend medical school. Curtis will be moving to Nashville with his soon-to-be wife, Haley, and their golden retriever, Melo. They are extremely excited to join the Vanderbilt family (but will forever be committed Kentucky Wildcats fans, of course!). Following internship, they will move further south to Savannah, Georgia where Curtis will begin Radiology residency at Mercer University/Memorial Health University. His career plan is to specialize in interventional radiology and focus on innovative approaches to minimally-invasive oncology treatment – intertwining his engineering background, enjoyment of procedures, and passion for working with cancer patients. Outside of medicine, Curtis enjoys hiking, traveling, fantasy sports, and exploring new restaurants and craft breweries with friends.
