I am an Assistant Professor of Medicine in Pulmonary and Critical Care and have been associate program director for the fellowship program since 2018. I hold a Ph.D. In Investigative Medicine from Yale University and my interests include medical education and conducting both foundation and industry-sponsored clinical trials. I am currently the director of the Adult Cystic Fibrosis Center at Wake Forest Baptist Health, and I am also the co-director of the pulmonary block for preclinical medical students at Wake Forest School of Medicine alongside Dr. Miles. I co-director of the online journal club for the American Thoracic Society’s Assembly of Pulmonary Infection and Mycobacterium Tuberculosis and is an active member of the assembly’s web committee and early career working group. My scholarly activities include investigating effective treatments, quality improvement, and optimizing multidisciplinary management of complex airways diseases with a particular interest in cystic fibrosis and bronchiectasis not associated with cystic fibrosis. My clinical interests are in cystic fibrosis, bronchiectasis not related to cystic fibrosis, severe asthma, non-tuberculosis pulmonary disease, pneumonia, and critical care medicine. I also play an active role as the section of pulmonary and critical care’s campion of telehealth implementation.
