About

I came to telehealth from the emergency department — where you learn very quickly that medicine that doesn't reach the patient is medicine that doesn't work. Most women experiencing menopause symptoms aren't getting care because the system requires them to take time off work, find an in-person provider who actually treats menopause, and pay out of pocket anyway. We can do better.

My background in Emergency Medicine taught me to evaluate the whole patient quickly and accurately, identify what's urgent versus what's important, and build clinical workflows that don't miss critical findings. That's the same discipline I bring to digital care delivery at Kindr — protocols rigorous enough to catch what matters, fast enough to actually serve patients.

I completed my Emergency Medicine residency at Case Western Reserve University / University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center after earning my MD at St. George's University in 2009. Outside medicine, I'm a former Division I athlete (pole vault) with a background in exercise science — which informs my work on athletic wellness and metabolic care for midlife adults.

I support Kindr's telehealth infrastructure and clinical programs, and provide care to patients in Florida and through virtual visits in additional licensed states.
