General Info

I am a full-time clinical assistant professor at Temple University School of Medicine. I earned my medical degree from Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine, completed an internal medicine residency at St. Luke’s University Health Network and a pulmonary and critical care fellowship at Medical College of Virginia. I returned to St. Luke’s after the completion of my fellowship. I have received teaching and research awards while in residency and fellowship. I am a fellow of the American College of Chest Physicians (FCCP). I currently serve as the medical director for the intensive care unit at St. Luke’s Anderson Campus, and I am highly involved in performance and quality improvement projects throughout the network. I have a special interest in interventional pulmonary procedures and therapies including bronchial thermoplasty, tunneled pleural catheters and percutaneous tracheostomy placement. I enjoy living in the Lehigh Valley with my husband and two daughters. In my spare time, I remain highly involved in my daughter’s dance and gymnastics endeavors.
