About

Biography

I’m a clinical fellow specializing in pediatric infectious disease (ID). I provide consultations in the hospital and clinic to collaborate with other medical teams to diagnose and manage complex childhood infections. I am also involved in infection prevention, antimicrobial stewardship and research addressing childhood infections.

I was drawn to ID due to the problem-solving aspects of the field. Other teams reach out to ID to provide a new perspective on diagnosing and managing infections with their breadth of expertise. I see ID physicians as the diagnosticians of the hospital, and this is something that I’m genuinely passionate about.

My philosophy is to see as many patients as possible during my workday to impact the health of as many children as possible. I know I'm truly fortunate to be in this position to help sick children, and I task myself daily to do as much good as possible.

In my free time, I like to run. I'm enjoying getting to know Cincinnati and all the incredible running trails. I'm also a big football (soccer) fan and have a borderline obsession with Liverpool FC and a developing fascination with Cincinnati FC.
