Biographical Information
Maximizing a patient’s quality of life is at the center of my work. I want patients to know that my team works to identify a correct diagnosis to design individualized treatment plans that limit symptoms and side effects.
I’m focused on providing excellent, evidence-based care, building long-term relationships with patients, their families and caregivers; and advancing the field of neuromuscular neurology through research.
I’m always learning new things, and I enjoy teaching and mentoring students, residents, fellows and colleagues locally and nationally. I serve in leadership roles in the Myasthenia Gravis Foundation of America, American Association of Neuromuscular and Electrodiagnostic Medicine, and the Neuromuscular Study Group.
My research interests include measuring the side effect burden of treatments for patients with neurological conditions, as well as remote monitoring of patients, and evaluating novel treatments for patients with myasthenia gravis and other neuromuscular disorders.
