About
Biography
I am an associate professor of Pediatrics with the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine and am currently the associate director of the Fetal Heart Program and co-director of Medical Student and Resident Education.
A native of Cincinnati, I have completed all of my medical training locally, starting with medical school at the University of Cincinnati. I completed both my pediatric residency and cardiology fellowship at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center. In addition to my three-year cardiology fellowship, I completed a fourth year of training to gain further expertise in fetal echocardiography, transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography, and neonatal cardiology.
I have been an attending staff member in the Heart Institute at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center since 2009. I have been active in the pediatric and cardiology communities as a member of the American Heart Association, American Society of Echocardiography, and the American Academy of Pediatrics.
