Growing up near Boston, I was surrounded by people who loved learning and encouraged hard work and dedication. As a student, I was inspired to study science and found that medicine was the best way I could help people.

I specialize in pediatric pulmonary medicine, primarily treating kids who have cough or shortness of breath. I have clinical and research interests in tracheobronchomalacia, a rare condition that weakens the airways; vaping-related lung injury; and aerodigestive disorders, which affect breathing, speaking, or swallowing.

At the Pediatric Aerodigestive Center, I work with patients and their families to tease apart the possible causes of their symptoms and help them feel better. I perform advanced pulmonary procedures, such as bronchoscopy, to diagnose and manage airway disease and lung conditions.

I also care for pediatric patients who are waiting for or who have already received a lung transplant. The ��ɫtv Langone Transplant Institute provides individualized treatment for patients and their families.

I approach new patients like a detective, listening carefully to their medical history and observing the smallest details. I perform a physical exam, then explain my findings and treatment recommendations.

I love caring for my patients, and I give them my undivided attention during appointments. I enjoy getting to know patients and their families and fostering long-term relationships with them as we work together to manage their disease.

I also teach residents and pediatric pulmonary fellows. I feel a responsibility to inspire and teach excellent diagnostic skills to the next generation of pediatricians and pediatric pulmonologists.
