Summary

  • I am a Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon with a Subspecialty Certificate in Surgery of the Hand. I am an Associate Professor of Plastic Surgery and Orthopedic Surgery at the University of Virginia. I am the Director for the Hand Surgery Fellowship program.

    My areas of expertise include brachial plexus and peripheral nerve surgery, and hand, wrist and forearm reconstruction following trauma. I specialize in microsurgery and arthroscopy of the upper extremity.

    I graduated summa cum laude from The College of William and Mary and attended Jefferson Medical College and Thomas Jefferson University, where I completed my medical education and earned a PhD in molecular pharmacology and structural biology. I then completed residency training in the Department of Plastic Surgery at UVA. I went on to complete fellowship training in hand and microvascular surgery in the Department of Orthopedic Surgery at the Mayo Clinic. I returned to UVA in 2017 to join the faculty at the UVA Hand Center.
