    As a clinician, I am committed to advancing evidence-based, high-quality care through innovative diagnostic strategies. In addition to my clinical work, I am dedicated to medical education and enjoy teaching learners across all stages of training. My academic interests include evaluating diagnostic tools that improve patient outcomes while supporting thoughtful use of antimicrobial therapies.
