My experience as a pediatric patient shaped the kind of doctor I want to be: compassionate and respectful of the unique challenges children face. Every day, I’m inspired by my patients’ strength and resilience. It’s a joy to watch them grow into confident people.
I care for girls and young women with a wide range of gynecologic concerns. These include heavy or irregular periods, amenorrhea, Müllerian anomalies, ovarian masses, fertility preservation and differences in sex development. I utilize minimally invasive surgery techniques to help patients recover with the best outcome possible.
Empowering families through education is central to my approach. I want each patient to leave their visit feeling supported, informed and in control of their health. I see care as a partnership—we make decisions together.
As a fellow, I collaborate with the entire gynecology team and other pediatric specialists. We make sure each child receives complete, holistic care that supports every part of their well-being.
I’m also involved in research to improve surgical outcomes for children and teens with complex gynecologic conditions. This includes congenital (present at birth) differences, menstrual obstruction and reconstructive surgery. My goal is to bring evidence-based, innovative solutions to the patients who need them most.
During my residency, I served as administrative chief resident. In this role, I built the foundation for how I lead—always with empathy, teamwork and a focus on my patients.
Outside the hospital, I enjoy reading, hiking, traveling and knitting handmade gifts for my family.
