It is a privilege to support students during this exciting, growth-filled and sometimes stressful period of their lives. During my psychiatry residency, I focused on providing care to trauma survivors and university students. Additional areas of professional interest include Identity development, anxiety, grief and supporting First Generation Students. I highly value psychotherapy and the incorporation of non-medication interventions including mindfulness-based practices. I care deeply about our planet and all of its creatures great and small. I am curious about the world and its inhabitants and love to travel. In my free time, I enjoy outdoor activities with family, friends and my beloved pup.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Personal Hobbies<\/strong><br \/>\n<span>Hiking, jogging, cross country skiing, sailing, listening to music and curling up with a good novel.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Education &amp; Training<\/strong><br \/>\nMD, School of Medicine at Brown University<br \/>\nBA, Brown University<br \/>\nResidency, Harvard University, Cambridge Hospital<br \/>\nBoard Certified<\/p>\n<p><strong>Committees<\/strong><br \/>\n<span>Boston Public School Scholars Mentor<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Community Involvement<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">TerrierF1RSTS Advocate, BU Newbury Center<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Green Department Certification, BU Sustainability<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"author":16413,"template":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/shs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile\/628"}],"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\/628\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":629,"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/shs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile\/628\/revisions\/629"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/shs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=628"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
