As a pediatric endocrinologist, I provide care to children with a variety of hormone problems, including thyroid disease, aspects of puberty and growth abnormalities, and other diseases that impact the endocrine system. I also care for individuals with prediabetes and diabetes types 1 and 2. I’m a member of the Adolescent Type 2 Diabetes Program at Cincinnati Children's, which provides comprehensive care for youth with type 2 diabetes.

I was drawn to pediatric endocrinology for the opportunity to care for and improve the lives and long-term outcomes of children and adolescents. I treat each child, adolescent and family individually, knowing their distinctive circumstances deserve a safe care plan that benefits their health. I think it's essential that every family has the opportunity to be heard and to ask questions.

My research focuses on improving the care and long-term outcomes of youth with type 2 diabetes. Through innovative and comprehensive research, we aim to identify, prevent and treat complications associated with type 2 diabetes. The goal is to optimize a patient's health so they can live a long, fulfilling life.

Outside of work, I enjoy being active through various sports, exploring new dining scenes and spending time with friends and family.
