Her medical training concluded with residency and gastroenterology fellowship at SUNY Downstate Medical Center (2015).

Research interests focus on IBD pathophysiology with emphasis on health disparities in Afro-Caribbean populations, bone health complications, and microbiome interactions. Her work integrates clinical practice with translational research to address treatment optimization and disease mechanisms in inflammatory bowel conditions.

Publication analysis reveals consistent themes in IBD management: microbiome-driven inflammation in Crohn's disease, ethnic variations in disease presentation, and quality improvement initiatives reducing emergency utilization through optimized biologic therapy pathways. Her work bridges laboratory findings with clinical implementation.
