I grew up in Michigan and earned my Bachelor of Science in Biology from Bowling Green State University in Ohio, where I also played NCAA Division I soccer. I went on to complete my Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine at Michigan State University College of Osteopathic Medicine. While I was in medical school, my parents relocated to Florida, and through frequent visits, I grew to love the year-round sunshine and outdoor lifestyle. The University of South Florida was the perfect fit that encouraged me to move to Florida to start my pediatric residency. In my first year of residency, I completed an allergy and immunology elective, which sparked a strong interest in the field and highlighted how my passion for patient-centered care aligned with a specialty focused on diagnostic complexity, continuity of care, and immune-mediated conditions. Outside of medicine, I enjoy being outdoors with my boyfriend and our dog, Magnolia, staying active through triathlons and kayaking, and spending quality time with family and friends.

I grew up in both Louisiana and Tennessee before attending the University of Alabama for undergrad where I studied computer science, anthropology, and biology. I moved back to Tennessee for medical school at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center College of Medicine in Memphis. During my pediatrics rotation in medical school, I discovered how much I loved the field of allergy/immunology. It was the perfect combination of continuity with patients, a wide variety of pathologies, exciting research opportunities, and a focus on improving the quality of life of patients. My interest in allergy/immunology has only grown during my residency in pediatrics at Johns Hospkins All Children’s Hospital in St. Petersburg, Florida. I am so excited to be able to stay in sunny St. Pete and Tampa to pursue fellowship training in my dream field of medicine!

Outside of medicine, I like to spend time with my husband, Blaine, and our dog, Milagro. We love going on walks downtown and attending Tampa Bay Lightning and Rays games.

I was born and raised in Austin, Texas and earned my Bachelor of Arts in Human Biology from Stanford University in California, where I also played NCAA Division I beach volleyball. I went on to complete medical school at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas, where I met my husband, Nick. We couples matched to Duke for my pediatric residency and his emergency medicine residency training. During my intern year, I completed an allergy and immunology elective and was drawn to the field due to its interdisciplinary nature, clinical complexity, and opportunity to address health inequities through targeted interventions and patient education. I am excited to continue my training at the University of South Florida/Johns Hopkins All Children’s Hospital and enjoy warm weather year-round. Outside of medicine, I enjoy running, cooking, exploring new coffee shops, and spending time outdoors with my husband, two golden retrievers, Captain and Ellie, and friends.

I was born in Virginia and raised across the US, before moving to India to live with my grandparents - a journey that exposed me to diverse cultures. Growing up with food allergies in India sparked my determination to be a part of the change. After medical school in India, I completed my Internal Medicine residency in Illinois, where working with my Allergy Immunologist helped me find my true calling. I am passionate about food and drug allergies, and I advocate for creating a safe environment so that every kid feels safe and empowered.

When I’m not in the clinic, you will find me trying out new recipes, exploring new cities, playing chess, or cherishing time with my beloved grandmom.
