She holds roles as Associate Medical Director for Neonatal and Pediatrics at Boston MedFlight, and serves on the American Thoracic Society's Education Committee and the Massachusetts State Board of Respiratory Care as Vice Chair. Her research focuses on respiratory physiology, mechanical ventilation optimization, and pediatric critical care, leveraging technologies like electrical impedance tomography (EIT) and large data analytics for decision support. She has contributed to national pediatric pulmonary curricula and quality improvement initiatives in respiratory care protocols.

• Education: MD from University of Connecticut School of Medicine (2006), Pediatrics residency at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (2009), and fellowships in Pediatric Critical Care and Cardiovascular Intensive Care at Boston Children's Hospital (2012–2013).

Her research integrates clinical practice with advanced technologies to improve respiratory support in critically ill children. Key projects include refining ventilation strategies using EIT and developing computer-aided decision tools. She has published on topics such as critical care transport during pandemics, pediatric pulmonary medicine curricula, and oxygen therapy optimization.

• Professional Affiliations: American Thoracic Society, Massachusetts State Board of Respiratory Care.
• Teaching Recognition: Recognized for outstanding teaching by residency and fellowship programs, oversees the Critical Care Medicine International Observership Program.

Her work extends to educational initiatives, including an online interactive curriculum for non-invasive ventilation use outside ICU settings and transport protocols for critical care fellows.
