Get to Know Me

Why I Am an Ob/Gyn With the Advanced Delivery Program

I think I鈥檝e wanted to be an Ob/Gyn since I鈥檝e been aware that such a profession existed. A person is so much more than their reproductive potential, but it is a privilege to take care of another鈥檚 needs across their entire lifespan at deeply personal times.

What I'm Passionate About

Whether it is a delivery where my judgement and skills are desperately needed, or better yet, a delivery where my presence is barely necessary, I still find myself saying 鈥淚 love what I do鈥 at 4 a.m. to whoever will listen. I鈥檝e always liked everything a general ob/gyn does, but delivering babies has always been at the heart of my professional practice.聽聽

I'm also passionate about medical student and resident education.

During time off, I enjoy swimming, bicycling, singing, and ballroom dancing.

How I Try to Make A Difference

I鈥檓 active in the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, and a member of both the Delaware Maternal Mortality Review Committee and the Delaware Perinatal Quality Collaborative. I touch the lives of the patients I treat, but my involvement in those organizations helps me learn about and advocate for improvements in systems and state/federal laws in the areas of reproductive justice, health inequities in medicine, and maternal mortality and morbidity. As a clinical assistant professor of ob/gyn and staff physician at Christiana Care, I also feel honored to contribute in small part to the education of the next generation of my profession.
