About me

  • Clinical Director, Asthma Program
  • Associate Professor of Clinical Medicine (Pulmonary, Allergy and Critical Care)

I specialize in pulmonary and critical care medicine with clinical expertise in asthma, including advanced therapies such as biological therapy and bronchial thermoplasty, chronic cough, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

I received my medical degree from Duke University School of Medicine, completed an Internal Medicine residency at Barnes-Jewish Hospital – Washington University, St. Louis, and completed my fellowship in Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania.

I have been caring for patients with asthma for over 10 years and see patients in the Harron Lung Center at Penn Medicine in University City.
