Summary

I am a board-certified pediatric emergency medicine physician with over 20 years of clinical, academic, and leadership experience. My professional journey spans top-tier institutions including Children’s National Medical Center and PM Pediatrics, where I’ve served as an attending physician, medical director, and regional telemedicine lead and held additional roles in mentorship and education. In addition to my clinical and leadership roles, I serve on the Board of Trustees for an independent all-girls school, where I contribute to strategic planning, governance, and long-term mission alignment—strengthening the intersection of education, community, and child wellness.
