I like to get to know my patients as people and to provide compassionate, individualized care. I strive to treat all my patients as I would want my own family members treated. I am a board-certified specialist in both pediatric cardiology and in the field of adult congenital heart disease. I joined St. Luke’s University Health Network in 2019. I specialize in the care of all heart problems in children including congenital defects and acquired problems like Kawasaki Disease and rheumatic heart disease. I am also qualified to care for adults with congenital heart disease- a new field within cardiology. I earned my medical degree at the University of New England, completed residencies at Penn State Hershey Medical Center and Geisinger Medical Center and fellowships at the Cleveland Clinic and Penn State Hershey Medical Center. Outside of work, I enjoy kayaking, gardening, reading and exploring new places with my daughter. I also help teach EMT classes on a regular basis. Some of my favorite places are the Jersey shore and Walt Disney World!
