Hi there! I’m board-certified in emergency medicine, medical toxicology and addiction medicine, which gives me a unique clinical perspective to bring to this Addiction Medicine Fellowship. I believe my experience managing acute medical and toxicologic emergencies adds valuable insight into addiction care.

Alongside my clinical work, I serve as the Medical Director of Acute Care Substance Use Prevention and Management, assistant program director for our Medical Toxicology Fellowship and core faculty for the Emergency Medicine Residency. I’m also an Associate Professor at Thomas Jefferson University and the University of South Florida.

I completed my Emergency Medicine Residency at Lehigh Valley Health Network, followed by a Medical Toxicology Fellowship in Philadelphia. My academic interests include acute withdrawal management, telemedicine, medication education and critical care toxicology.

Being part of this fellowship allows me to share my experience and collaborate with others dedicated to improving addiction treatment within our community. I’ve called the Lehigh Valley home for over 15 years and, outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family.
