Overview
I have dedicated my entire professional career to working in Genetics at Nemours. What I find most rewarding is the diversity within the field, coupled with the opportunity to build lasting relationships with patients and their families. I take great joy in supporting children and their families throughout the full span of pediatric care — from the moment of a new diagnosis in the prenatal period or infancy through to young adulthood.Currently I am the director of Physician Assistants at Nemours Childrens Hospital, Delaware and an assistant professor at Jefferson College of Health Profession.My educational background:Bachelor of Science in Biology from Elizabethtown College, 2003Master of Physician Assistant Studies from Arcadia University, 2007Master of Science in Public Health, 2007 During my clinical training as a physician assistant, I found myself naturally drawn to pediatrics. I am inspired by the curiosity children bring to the world and their remarkable ability to remain confident and cheerful. It’s truly special how children can brighten our days simply by being themselves. I am deeply committed to providing whole child health for each patient, focusing not only on their physical health, but also on the emotional and social well-being of the child and entire family. I believe in supporting the entire family, recognizing that their needs are an essential part of the child’s overall care. My goal is to care for each child as if they were my own. I strive to ensure that every child and family feels truly heard, understood, and supported. It’s important to me that families leave each visit with their questions fully answered and a clear and confident understanding of the care plan.

My medical interests include: Clinical management of infants with skeletal dysplasias, including OI, thanatophoric dysplasia, and collagen-II-opathies Emerging medical treatments for skeletal dysplasias The elucidation of the natural history of OI and skeletal dysplasias The role of biomarkers in all skeletal dysplasias Management of chronic pain in adolescents and young adults with skeletal dysplasias Complex medical conditions Palliative care I try to make a difference by focusing on each child or teen as if they are my one and only patient. I aim to provide a comforting environment for kids while they are in our care and always consider how to better manage symptoms and control any pain. I earned a master's degree in bioethics, and often call upon what I learned to help inform how I view the way the hospital and our teams deliver excellent care to children and teens.
