What are the strengths of your training program?
I have thoroughly enjoyed working with the faculty and fellows in both a clinical and research capacity during my time here. These relationships and the wealth of opportunities afforded by being a part of this prestigious institution are why I chose to remain at Duke for fellowship.
How are you involved in research? What are your research interests?
I am involved in research to examine the efficacy of mHealth education to improve acute kidney injury management and outcomes in neonates, children, and young adults. Notably, I have obtained funding for my research which includes an R38 Stimulating Access to Research in Residency (StARR) grant and Pediatric Scientist Development Program, March of Dimes Award.
How do you spend your time outside of work?
Outside of the hospital, I enjoy making gourmet ice-cream—banana white chocolate is a personal favorite—and attending as many Clemson football games as my busy schedule allows!
