Clinical Interest for Patients
My clinical interests broadly include working with youth with chronic primary and secondary pain conditions. I am particularly interested in multidisciplinary intervention with youth with comorbid pain and sleep presentations, GYN populations, and youth from marginalized and undertreated communities.
Care Philosophy
My overarching goal is to prevent youth from developing chronic pain in the first place, and to collaborate with youth with current pain and their families to get them back to doing valued activities along the way to pain relief.

In my spare time, I enjoy biking (year-round), spending time with my husband and dog, and traveling to see the world and meet new people.

Clinical Interests for Referring Providers
I am interested in providing early intervention screening and intervention, as well as prevention of chronic pain in high risk samples (e.g. family history of chronic pain, pre-surgical, MSK injury, comorbid chronic illness).
Research Interest for Referring Providers
My research interests are in chronic pain prevention and early intervention models. I am also particularly interested in learning about equitable care models to ensure that all children have access to high quality pain care around the world.
