Overview
I’m a pediatric emergency medicine specialist committed to providing high-quality emergency care to ill and injured children. My clinical care focuses on providing innovative pain management and procedural sedation options, while ensuring that all children have equitable access to care. I am passionate about developing effective pain management options for chronic conditions that present acutely such as sickle cell disease pain crises. I strive to harness every opportunity to teach emergent pediatric management to all levels of learners. Outside of work, I enjoy exploring all the activities the area has to offer, from lake sports to hiking, and being the biggest fan at sporting events, ballroom dance competitions, and the concerts of my husband and three children.
