Pediatric Emergency Medicine

Professional Statement

A child's health should not be dictated by the circumstances they were born into. I aspire to provide exemplary high quality care for my patients in the emergency center at Texas Children's Hospital and, concurrently, develop innovations in child health, advocate for effective health policy, and train clinicians. At the heart of my work is a passion to improve the health of children here in Houston and globally.

Everyone deserves access to high quality healthcare. I am a physician-scientist with research focuses in pneumonia, pulse oximetry, and mobile health. My work has been funded by the National Institutes of Health, Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, Laerdal Foundation, and Texas Children's Hospital/²ÝÁñÉçÇøÈë¿Ú. This work is inspired by the clinical care I provide to children in Houston and the three years I spent living in Rwanda and Malawi caring for children and training clinicians. I am a member of the World Health Organization's Pneumonia Research Partnership to Assess WHO Recommendations (PREPARE) and the Pediatric Acute Lung Injury and Sepsis Investigators Global Health (PALISI-GH) network. Advocacy is a cornerstone of my clinical practice. In this vein I have held multiple state and national level elected and appointed positions in organized medicine. I have authored policy for the American Medical Association and provided technical assistance to the Ministries of Health of Malawi and Rwanda.

I am especially interested in mentoring students and trainees from a variety of disciples and backgrounds.
