About Me

I practice obstetrics, specializing in maternal fetal medicine and high-risk pregnancies. Each patient is different, and therefore each pregnancy is different too. I treat patients with a wide variety of conditions that may affect or complicate a pregnancy. I have a particular interest in the ultrasound perspective of maternal fetal medicine, and really enjoy developing long-term relationships with my patients and helping them achieve healthy pregnancies. I believe in a team approach with my patients, developing a comprehensive care plan with the patient that works for their needs.

I originally came to The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center for residency because my family lives here in Columbus. However, I stayed on because I love getting to teach and inspire the next generation of physicians and being part of an institution that’s always at the forefront of medicine.

I’m active in Ob/Gyn-related efforts outside of Ohio State as well. I often participate in local and statewide committees, lectures and clinical skills conferences to help teach and collaborate with providers in the community.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. I love being outdoors and can often be found out for a run or playing with my son and 80 pound Labrador.
