About Me

I am an internal medicine physician specializing in emergency care at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center. I ensure patients feel seen, heard and safe, especially in moments of crisis. I chose a career in medicine because I believe deeply in the power of compassionate care, particularly for underserved populations. I strive to build trust with patients and serve as their advocate to help them navigate complex social and medical systems.

Teaching and mentorship are core to how I practice medicine. Working with physician residents and medical students reminds me daily of the importance of curiosity, vulnerability and growth, both in clinical reasoning and human connection. As a mentor, I support the next generation by modeling authenticity. These experiences pushed me to pursue more intentional work in medical education and social emergency medicine, areas where I can help reimagine how we teach physicians to serve with purpose.

I am an assistant clinical professor of Emergency Medicine at The Ohio State University College of Medicine, and I currently serve as assistant program director for the Emergency Medicine/Internal Medicine (EMIM) residency program. I work closely with faculty and learners to enhance safety and performance in educational experiences.

I lead our Social Emergency Medicine (Social EM) curriculum and oversee the Social EM Summer Immersion Program, which introduces first-year medical students to emergency medicine through community outreach. I also co-authored and led the development of a multiyear social determinants of health (SDH) curriculum for physician residents, which has now been integrated into our academic program.

In addition, my responsibilities include serving as a member of the Ohio Department of Health’s Pregnancy-Associated Mortality Review (PAMR) board. I contribute to maternal mortality reviews and overall health system improvement.
