Being able to educate families on their child's condition and help improve their lives long-term through education and advocacy is an amazing experience.

I’m board certified in pediatrics and pediatric hospital medicine, with a special interest in newborn medicine and medical education. I’m an assistant professor of pediatrics and a pediatric hospitalist at Atrium Health Levine Children's Hospital. I’m the program director for the Pediatric Residency Program and a clinical skills instructor at Wake Forest School of Medicine as well as the co-course director for the Transition to Residency Course at the medical school.

I was awarded the Resident Teaching Award and Medical Student Teaching Award in Pediatrics and was named the Carolinas Simulation Center Simulationist of the Year. I currently serve as a co-chair of the membership committee of the North Carolina Pediatric Society.

I have been involved with research involving quality improvement work and have also participated in educational research related to medical student transition curriculum.

I received my medical degree at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill and completed a residency and chief residency at Atrium Health Levine Children’s Hospital.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my husband and son. My husband and I are avid Clemson Tigers and Carolina Panthers fans.
