From an early age, I was always drawn to healing and medicine. During my residency at Bronx Lebanon Hospital and as an Attending at Mt. Vernon Hospital, I thrived in Pediatrics.

I have found such joy in watching new parents care for their infants and earnestly search out guidance from a trusted Pediatrician. Understanding my responsibility as a child’s family advocate, I focus on nutrition as one of my concentrations.

I find that I have endless opportunities to educate families on the healthy upbringing of their children. I believe that a healthy diet, physical activity, love, encouragement and an open dialogue are the cornerstones to raising healthy, happy children. I teach patients preventive measures for good health through proper nutrition, weight management, regular activity and healthy lifestyle choices. This allows me to build a lasting relationship with parents and patients, empowering parents with the information and confidence they need to raise healthy children.

My favorite pastimes are traveling, skiing and reading.
