Overview
I am a general pediatrician who provides care for children from birth through adolescence. My special interests include adolescent health, children with medical complexity or developmental disorders, and adoption and foster care. I joined Duke in 2024. From helping teens learn to advocate for their own health and well-being to reassuring new parents that they are doing things right, I enjoy inspiring good health by giving people confidence in their own abilities. I love working with kids because it allows me to form special relationships with families while positively affecting the health and safety of the community. Outside of work, I am an adoptive and foster parent who enjoys music, hip-hop dance, travel, and negotiating diets with my obese lap cats.
