I was born and raised in North Carolina, and I moved to Chicago for residency to become a part of the Comer family. Through my experiences in medical school and residency, I have developed a passion for health education, transition care, and mentorship. While not working or sleeping, I love biking with my husband (who serves as Senior Pastor at First Baptist Church of Oak Park) or walking my dogs (2 Labrador retrievers) on Lakefront Trail, eating our way through the city’s many neighborhoods, and hosting friends and family in our Berwyn home.

Residency is a beautiful time to find out who you are not only as a physician, but as a friend, a partner, and overall what kind of person you want to be. At Comer, you will find no better co-residents, program leadership, and patients to help you on your journey. I am a Chicago native through and through, there really is no place quite like it- dancing in Millennium park, concerts year round, the most gorgeous lake side path!! When I am not in the hospital, I love going to yoga with my co-residents, eating Mom’s homemade cooking in the suburbs, and having an old fashioned in West Loop with my best friends on a Friday night. After chief year, I plan to work both in primary care and as a community hospitalist.

My interests within pediatrics include hospitalist medicine and academic medicine. I'm originally from Boston and love sports, so my favorite pursuit away from work is following the Red Sox, Patriots, Celtics and Bruins. That being said, I really fell in love with the city of Chicago and all it has to offer during residency, and I'm thrilled to call it home for the foreseeable future!
