Professional Summary

My primary clinical experience and expertise is providing general outpatient treatment to children, adolescents, and young adults, particularly those with developmental disabilities. I consult to the Summit Academy for students with autism, and serve as Division Director for Medical Student Wellness, in which role I provide direct care to the students and oversee additional clinicians doing the same.

In the hospital setting, I am the Medical Director of the Pediatric Psychiatry Consultation-Liaison Service at Oishei Children‘s Hospital.

Current research and committee activities include work related to burnout in medical students and physicians, and as a consultant for Dr. Greg Fabiano and colleagues’ ADHD treatment studies.
