I find great satisfaction partnering with parents and caregivers to positively shape a child's development and help them achieve their potential.
I’m board certified in pediatrics and specialize in developmental and behavioral pediatrics.
I decided to pursue my specialty after observing a significant need for developmental specialists while working as a general pediatrician for nearly 10 years. I believed I could make a positive impact by identifying and addressing developmental problems early.
I was the recipient of an Alumni Preceptor Award from the Medical College of Ohio.
I received my medical degree at Addis Ababa University and completed a residency at the Medical College of Ohio. I completed a fellowship at The University of Kansas.
Outside of work, I enjoy hiking and spending time with family and friends.
