About Me
I joined Penn State Health Children’s Hospital in 2019 as an assistant professor of Pediatrics. I am the medical director of the Children’s Hospital Milk Lab, located in the NICU. I am passionate about neonatal nutrition and work with clinical dieticians and a multidisciplinary team of nurses, physicians, and milk technicians to ensure the best nutrition is delivered to our patients. I am also the assistant program director for the Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine fellowship and a facilitator for a monthly simulation curriculum for Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine fellows.
I teach medical students and provide bedside teaching to pediatric residents, fellows, and physician assistant students. Outside of clinical care and teaching, I love to play the piano and spend time with my family.
