About

Biography

As a clinical fellow in the Division of Infectious Diseases, I care for children and adolescents with infectious diseases. I enjoy the breadth and scope of infectious diseases and how they involve every specialty and patients of every age. They also span every setting, locally and internationally.

In 2018, I received the American Academy of Pediatrics Community Access to Child Health (CATCH) grant to investigate healthcare barriers.

Through my research, I hope to investigate the epidemiology of healthcare and community infections and the influence of the environment and human activity on various diseases.

MD: University of Queensland, Brisbane, Australia, 2015.

Residency: Internal Medicine-Pediatrics, University of Louisville, Louisville, KY, 2020.
