I am a pediatric transplant hepatologist who provides care to children of all ages with a variety of acute and chronic liver disease. My research has focused on children with autoimmune liver disease, fatty liver disease, and liver transplant. As the Medical Director of the Pediatric Liver Transplant Program, I emphasize patient and family-centered care, expanding access to care, and quality improvement.
