About
It is so gratifying to know that, after a patient wakes up from surgery, they will soon be able to function better at work, home and in daily life. I find the neurosciences, the brain and the spine fascinating because of everything they control and do for us. I knew for certain I wanted to pursue neurosurgery when I first shadowed neurosurgeons in medical school and saw the meaningful impacts they have on patients' lives.
I strongly believe in treating my patients the way I would treat my family members. For degenerative spinal disease, that means I try to do the smallest surgery possible to achieve relief. I also emphasize safety and complication prevention.
Being an active member of the Congress of Neurological Surgeons, the American Association of Neurological Surgeons, Women in Neurosurgery, the North Carolina Spine Society and the North Carolina Medical Society means I stay current on new and emerging surgical techniques and treatment options, and up to date on the latest research.
I have participated in research on a range of topics, including stereotactic radiosurgery, MRI-guided-laser ablation surgery, malignant brain tumors and complex spinal surgery. I have also published book chapters on topics that include arachnoid cysts and subdural hematomas.
I moved to North Carolina to be closer to family. Outside work, I enjoy outdoor activities including hiking, kayaking, gardening and sailing.
