I always wanted to be a doctor and, specifically, a pediatrician. I come from a family of doctors and saw from a young age the impact a physician can have on patients' lives. When my sister, cousins and I used to play town as kids, I was always the one calling in the townspeople for their checkups and shots. Now, my nurturing side thrives in caring for families of newborns and counseling them through the inevitable ups and downs of childhood. My philosophy is that healthcare should be holistic. As a pediatrician, I'm an advocate for the child and counselor and coach for the parents. I treat the family as a whole unit to help everyone thrive and grow together. I trained at Levine Children's Hospital for residency and have lived in Charlotte since 2014. I enjoy mentoring people pursuing healthcare careers and have trained many advanced care practitioners (APPs) here in Charlotte. I serve as lead physician at Medical Plaza Pediatrics and enjoy coaching our clinic and staff on offering a caring, holistic approach to patient care. I love spending time with my husband and our young son and daughter. I play the piano, and my kids will often sing along while I play. We enjoy travel and experiencing new cultures, cuisines and people. I'm a capable home chef and enjoy baking chocolate desserts and treats to share with neighbors, friends and colleagues.
