I am a Pediatric Endocrinology Fellow and clinical researcher with a track record of research potential and success. My research focus is on metabolic and hemodynamic mechanisms underlying the development of diabetic kidney disease in type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Despite my early career stage, my expertise in the area has been recognized by major research groups including Coronary Artery Calcification in Type 1 Diabetes (CACTI) Study, Determinants of Macrovascular Disease Risk in Adolescents With Type 1 Diabetes, RESistance to InSulin in Type 1 ANd Type 2 diabetes (RESISTANT) Study, and Treatment Options for Type 2 Diabetes in Adolescents and Youth (TODAY) which have invited me to join them as an investigator. 

As a specialist in gastroenterology, I help patients with inflammatory bowel disease, celiac disease and malabsorption disorders. I’m passionate about my career because I enjoy helping patients maintain their digestive health with attention to diagnosis, specialized procedures and treatment recommendations. I firmly believe that each patient encounter requires specialized attention to detail. At The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, I appreciate the opportunity to not only be a patient's specialist, but also to be a part of the overall care team. What I enjoy most about my work at Ohio State is the opportunity to be part of something special. Many bright physicians and nurses come together each day to heal patients. In my spare time, I enjoy watching my kids at dance and sport competitions.
