15Additional Information
I am a board-certified, residency-trained emergency physician practicing for 15 years. I graduated cum laude from the University of Richmond with a BS in Chemistry and was an Academic All-American while running cross-country and track. I completed residency training at Duke University Hospital, serving as Chief Resident during my third year. I started my career as an Assistant Professor of Emergency Medicine at Duke University Hospital, where I was awarded Faculty Clinician of the Year in 2014. In 2016, I transitioned to community practice in the Roper Saint Francis Health System in Charleston, South Carolina, where I continue to work as a full-time emergency physician. Our group staffs four hospital-based ERs and two freestanding ERs for RSFH, caring for diverse urban, suburban, and rural populations. Even though I am no longer in academics, I continue to enjoy teaching by serving as a preceptor for second-year Medical University of South Carolina PA students. I am passionate about bedside care, as well as clear easy to understand communication and education of patients and their families.
