I grew up in the Midwest, in East Lansing, Michigan. I earned my undergraduate degree at Harvard College in Cambridge, MA and my medical degree at Michigan State University College of Human Medicine in Grand Rapids, MI. I completed my pediatric residency at the University of Rochester. I worked as a primary care pediatrician in the Atlanta area for about 5 years before happily returning to Rochester to make it home. Outside of work, I like to hike, read, and travel. My husband - originally my organic chemistry partner in college! - is a pediatric hematologist/oncologist at the University of Rochester Medical Center. We live with our spirited daughter and our dog in Pittsford. I love being a pediatrician, getting to know my patients and their families, and supporting them on the journey to adulthood!
