Our Team

I am an academic hospitalist at University of Michigan and the Ann Arbor Veterans Affairs Hospital. I direct the Internal Medicine Residency Preparation Course (IM RPC) for M4 students at the University of Michigan Medical School. I am passionate about helping medical students become outstanding physicians. 

My specific academic and educational research interests include inpatient cross-cover medicine and  the transition along the medical education continuum from M4 to intern year.
