Biography

I am a board-certified pulmonary and critical care physician at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center. I specialize in caring for patients with difficult-to-treat asthma as well as providing care for patients who are critically ill in the intensive care unit.

My patients can rely on me for high-quality, compassionate care and honest communication. I collaborate with a multidisciplinary team to ensure each patient receives personalized treatment that supports both immediate recovery and long-term respiratory health.

In addition to my clinical responsibilities, I serve as an associate program director for the Internal Medicine Residency Program at The Ohio State University. My research interests include improving procedure education for trainees and simulation development.
