I am currently an assistant professor of emergency medicine at the Chobanian and Avedisian School of Medicine at Boston University and an attending physician at Boston Medical Center.

I completed residency training at the Virginia Commonwealth University Health System's Combined Emergency Medicine/Internal Medicine Program in Richmond, Virginia.

My research and clinical interests focus on the intersection of emergency medicine and infectious diseases. This takes many forms, including tropical medicine, global health, and critical care. I also have passions for medical education and LGBT health.
