About Me

I am a rehabilitation psychologist and neuropsychologist at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, Dept. of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation. I have experience working with a variety of medical patients and enjoy collaborating with our inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation teams. I primarily assess and treat individuals recovering from brain injuries, stroke, burns, long-Covid, and various neurological conditions.

I completed my doctorate in clinical psychology and neuropsychology at Nova Southeastern University in south Florida. I completed my predoctoral psychology internship at the Gulf Coast Veterans Health Care System in Biloxi, Mississippi, and my postdoctoral fellowship in rehabilitation psychology here at OSUWMC. My areas of clinical and research interest range from suicide assessment/prevention in persons with traumatic brain injury, to adjustment disorders, mindfulness-based stress reduction, and behavioral sleep medicine.

In my free time, I enjoy being out in nature, hiking at the Columbus metro parks, and checking out the local festivals and seasonal events.

Consulting and Related Relationships

At The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, we support a faculty member’s research and consulting in collaboration with medical device, research and/or drug companies because a faculty member’s expertise can guide important advancements in the practice of medicine and improve patient care. In order to provide effective management of these relationships, the University requires annual disclosures from all faculty members with external interests related to their University responsibilities.
