Specialties
  • Pediatric Hematology / Oncology, Board Certification
Clinical Interests
I moved to Colorado for a clinical fellowship in Neuro-oncology after completing my training in Pediatric Hematology and Oncology at the combined training program at Johns Hopkins University/National Cancer Institute. I joined the faculty here as a clinician and researcher. I care for children and young adults with brain and spine tumors.

Care Philosophy
The physical and psychological impact of tumors on a patient can vary greatly based on age, tumor type and necessary treatment. I hope to offer patients and their families the most current therapeutic options, working alongside an excellent multi-disciplinary team here at Children's Hospital Colorado.

Personal Interests
Yoga, travel, reading, and spending time with my family.
