Summary

  • I am a recent graduate of the Adult and Pediatric Infectious Disease fellowship at Brown University. Prior to moving to Providence, I completed my Internal Medicine/Pediatrics residency at the Medical College of Wisconsin and medical school at Meharry Medical College. I am passionate about infectious diseases and share my knowledge with rotating learners, on Instagram, and I'm a proud tweetiatrician. My research interests include assessing pregnancy outcomes and retention in care of women living with HIV in Rhode Island.

    Currently, I am a medical officer in the USPHS Commissioned Corps and an Epidemic Intelligence Officer at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
