Durham, NC 

Overview

I care for adults with a wide range of medical conditions, including acute illnesses like anemia, pneumonia and heart failure, as well as chronic diseases such as diabetes, COPD, and cirrhosis. As a hospitalist, I focus on managing patients during their hospital stay, coordinating with specialists, nurses, and families to provide personalized, compassionate care. My background as a nurse before becoming a physician shapes my approach—I value clear communication, empathy, and involving patients in their care decisions. I have a strong interest in the field of gastroenterology. What I enjoy most about hospital medicine is helping people through critical moments in their lives. Outside of work, I enjoy hiking, camping, and spending time outdoors, which helps me stay balanced and connected.
