Professional Bio
I am dedicated to the delivery of safe, evidence-based care to pregnant persons and their children as well as the advancement of science to support this care. I joined the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Division of Maternal-Fetal Medicine in order to serve this patient population with the resources and vision of a Public Health-Minded University.
I completed my OB/Gyn residency and Maternal-Fetal Medicine fellowship training at Duke University. I obtained both MD and PhD degrees through the NIH-funded Medical Scientist Training Program at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
Through my academic pursuits and clinical experience, I have developed expertise in high-risk pregnancy care, and management of complex surgical needs in pregnancy such as placenta accreta spectrum and pregnancy with abdominopelvic anatomy disrupted by prior surgery or health conditions. Additionally, as a PhD-trained basic scientist, I have made a career commitment to pair translational research with clinical practice to continually advance medical knowledge in high risk pregnancies, particularly relating to pregnancy immunology, placental cellular biology, and impacts of antenatal development on long-term health.
