Professional Statement

I am dedicated to providing compassionate, patient-centered care for children with neurological disorders, with a particular focus on neurocritical care, stroke, neurovascular disorders, and the long-term follow-up of children recovering from neurological injury and illness. As a clinician-educator, I am committed to advancing clinical care, education, and research through multidisciplinary collaboration and innovation. I also have a strong interest in biomedical and clinical informatics, leveraging data and technology to improve patient outcomes, enhance care delivery, and advance the field of pediatric neurology. Ultimately, my goal is to improve the lives of children and families affected by neurological disease across the continuum of care.
