I received my Doctor of Pharmacy from the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston, South Carolina in 2006. Following pharmacy school I completed my PGY-1 residency and PGY-2 residency in Critical Care at Shands at the University of Florida.

I am currently a member of the Communications and Public Affairs Advisory Group within the New Practitioners Forum of ASHP. My research interests include venous thromboembolism prophylaxis in critically ill patients and recombinant factor VIIa use in cardiac surgery patients.
