About

Biography

I’m a pediatrician pursuing a fellowship to specialize in neonatology. I strongly emphasize open communication and collaboration with families. This underscores my belief that involving families in discussions about their child's care leads to more informed decisions and a deeper sense of partnership. I also believe in the strength of multidisciplinary care and recognize the value of a holistic approach in meeting the complex needs of neonates.

My research is primarily focused on evaluating the safety of feeding infants with congenital diaphragmatic hernias who are on various levels of respiratory support. Through a balanced blend of research, family engagement and collaborative practice, I aim to continually improve the care I provide to our community's youngest members.

I was honored to receive the Reginald C. Tsang Fellowship Award as a first-year fellow for demonstrating excellence in patient care, research, teaching and leadership.

I enjoy Pilates and yoga, as well as spending time outdoors hiking, swimming and traveling with my partner.

Residency: Oregon Health and Science University, Portland, OR.
