She grew up in Wheaton, IL and stayed nearby for undergrad at Northwestern University, medical school at UIC, and pediatric residency training at Rush University in Chicago.

She went on to complete a fellowship in Pediatric Emergency Medicine at Ann and Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago and worked in the emergency department back at Rush for 4 years before transitioning to pediatric urgent care. She is excited to now transition to general pediatrics as she loves helping children of all ages reach their potential.

She and her husband have 3 boys who keep them busy but in her free time she likes to read, walk her dog George, and do anything and everything outside.
