After medical school I moved to sunny Tucson, Arizona for my residency in General Psychiatry and my fellowship in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry. After my training I had the good fortune to work in a dual diagnosis residential treatment center in Tucson and I became board-certified in Addiction Medicine. Eventually my family and I moved back to New England and I have been fortunate enough to work with patients in a number of different clinical settings, including college mental health. Now, I&#8217;m excited to be working in college mental health at BU. My goal as a psychiatrist is to help every patient feel comfortable, feel empowered, and give them the best support and psychiatric expertise that I can.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Personal Hobbies<\/strong><br \/>\nIn my free time I mostly enjoy spending time with my family. I also enjoy painting, playing guitar, sailing, paddleboarding, hiking, digital animation, and visiting scenic places in New England (when the weather is nice).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Education &amp; Training<\/strong><br \/>\nMD, University of Massachusetts Medical School<br \/>\nResidency, University of Arizona<br \/>\nFellowship, University of Arizona<br \/>\nABPN<br \/>\nABAM<\/p>\n<p><strong>Special Interests<\/strong><br \/>\n<span>Addiction Medicine Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Psychopharmacology: Risks and Monitoring<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Awards<\/strong><br \/>\n<span>Teacher of the Year Award: Harvard South Shore Psychiatry Residency Program<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Noteworthy publications &amp; presentations<\/strong><br \/>\n<span>Presentation: &#8220;Antidepressants and Anti-Anxiety Medications in College Mental Health&#8221; Presentation: &#8220;Cannabis and College Mental Health&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16413,"template":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/shs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile\/622"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/shs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/shs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/profile"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/shs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16413"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/shs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile\/622\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":623,"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/shs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile\/622\/revisions\/623"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/shs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=622"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
