Specialties

"I was first attracted to neuroscience as an undergraduate and have been fascinated ever since. I love communicating with patients and families to help them understand the complexities and wonders of the brain. I am also amazed by my colleagues both within my program and throughout the hospital. My focus is on identifying new tools that allow us to safely investigate the brain these tools have been essential to our understanding of neurological disorders in children and help us provide better treatments. I am profoundly grateful to be a pediatric specialist at Seattle Children's."
