About Me
I am a pediatric imaging specialist at Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital. I care for pediatric patients with a variety of heart conditions including those with Marfan syndrome, Tetralogy of Fallot and hypoplastic left heart syndrome.
My father is an adult cardiologist and, as a child, I remember watching him review echocardiograms on VHS tapes in his office. He got me interested in the field and inspired me to pursue a career in medicine. As I progressed through medical school, I found pediatric encounters and pathology to be my favorite. Ultimately, I found pediatric cardiology to be the most interesting specialty due to its complexity, wide breadth of imaging and procedures that are involved.
I use imaging, especially echocardiography and cardiac MRI, to arrive at a patient’s diagnosis and “set the stage” for further medical or surgical treatment. Advanced cardiac imaging, especially via MRI, gives us a better field of view so we can best visualize the complex connections in congenital heart disease.
When caring for patients and working with their families, I always try to describe the diagnosis and plan of action with clarity and conciseness. While I know any heart condition can be terrifying for a child and their loved ones, our team is here to provide information, expertise, guidance and support to help families navigate the experience.

Research
In addition to providing patient care, I am also involved in clinical research aimed at exploring heart conditions, treatments, and the effectiveness of care plans. My research interests include Left Ventricular Global Longitudinal Strain in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Patients and multimodality imaging in patients who have had COVID-19 and Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome associated with COVID-19 after acute illness.
