Biography

As a board-certified neurologist, I have a special interest in epilepsy.

Epilepsy is a condition that causes seizures. I work with patients whose seizures don’t respond to medication alone. I help these patients consider other options for seizure control. One of my research goals is to find ways to improve access to epilepsy care.

At home, I enjoy baking, reading science fiction and traveling with my family.
