About
I am a pediatric hospitalist and currently Division Head of Pediatric Hospital Medicine. I also work with our pediatric sedation team at the Children's Hospital of Illinois. I am involved with our residency and fellowship programs, helping to oversee their scheduling and scholarly work in particular. Outside of work, I enjoy doing things outdoors and traveling to new places with my family.
Why I chose Peoria
Peoria is a great place to live and work! We have a large medical center with good resources that keeps our jobs interesting, but we don't have to live in a major metro area and so have a good work-life balance. There's lots of activities for kids and adults in the area, especially outdoors. UICOMP is a supportive place to work that offers lots of opportunity!
