As a pediatric radiologist, I care for children by helping their care teams understand what’s going on inside their bodies with imaging tests like X-rays, ultrasounds, CT scans and MRIs. My background includes additional training in musculoskeletal imaging. I’m especially interested in how we use MRI scans to look at bones, joints and soft tissues for patients of all ages.

I’ve always known I wanted to work with children. I chose radiology because imaging plays such a vital role in diagnosing illness and guiding treatment across all areas of medicine. As a mom of two boys, I bring a parent’s perspective to my work. I treat every child’s scan with the same care and attention I’d want for my own kids. My goal is to provide accurate and thoughtful interpretations for families and their care teams.

My research focuses on quantitative imaging using abdominal ultrasound and MRI. I’m discovering how we can use these tests as noninvasive ways to measure liver inflammation, iron and fat content. Above all, my goal is to make imaging exams safe, comfortable and efficient for our pediatric patients.

In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family and playing golf.
