Biography

I believe adolescents have a right to comprehensive, confidential care to empower them to live their most authentic and healthy lives.

I’m board certified in both pediatrics and adolescent medicine. I am a director of adolescent medicine with Atrium Health Levine Children’s.

I have a special interest in reproductive health, including IUD placements and medication management for depression and anxiety in adolescents and young adults. I’m currently researching both reproductive and mental health care issues.

I earned my medical degree at Morehouse School of Medicine and completed my residency at Children’s National Hospital. I followed that with a fellowship in adolescent medicine at Johns Hopkins University.

Outside of work, I love spending time with my husband and children. I also enjoy reading, biking and connecting with my friends.
