Overview
While I was practicing primary care for 9 years I was repeatedly exposed to sleep disorders that were affecting the disease processes I was managing. From this my interest grew in learning about these conditions as they played a major role in improving the patient's overall health. I then decided to pursue sub specialty training in Sleep Medicine. I am now excited to provide comprehensive care for all sleep disorders including sleep apnea, restless leg syndrome, parasomnias including REM behavior disorder, to name a few. I love educating patients on their disease and bringing them into the decision making process for a collaborative approach. Outside of work I enjoy spending time with my husband and two children and staying active.

Duke Neurological Disorders Clinic - Clinic 1L
I am currently the chief of the division of Epilepsy, Sleep, and Clinical Neurophysiology. I see epilepsy patients and patients with sleep disorders. The epilepsy patients that I see often have a hard time controlling their seizures or have other epilepsy-related problems. At Duke, we have many options, including clinical trials, advanced medications, and surgical options, that we can offer patients to get them to a better quality of life with fewer or no seizures. In sleep disorders, I see many patients with sleep apnea and have a passion for treating individuals with narcolepsy. My philosophy is that I want patients to be aware of all the different treatment options that they have available this them. Together, we come up with what I, the patient, and the family think is the best approach for the individual. This way, we can individualize the treatment for each person. It is very gratifying for me to see patients doing so much better with the appropriate medications and pursuing the dreams they have and doing the things they really want to do.
