After beginning my career in Chicago, I moved to Providence in 2016. My main clinical interests are in the intersection of pregnancy and stroke, fibromuscular dysplasia, and in promoting wellness in my patients. As a researcher, I have been involved in many different clinical trials, including acting as the site PI for MR Witness, a study which investigated safety of tPA for wake-up strokes.
