A CU Medicine provider.
I specialize in complex medical dermatology, including transition of care from pediatric to adult care. I strive to provide compassionate, personalized treatment for the whole patient, recognizing that skin diseases can impact a patient’s emotional well-bring and quality of life.

- Clinical interest for patients
-
Complex medical dermatology including: epidermolysis bullosa and other genetic skin conditions, autoimmune blistering diseases (such as pemphigus, pemphigoid), hidradenitis suppurativa.
I see patients at both Children's Hospital of Colorado and UCHealth, and focus on the transition of care from pediatric to adult practice, particularly for patients with complex or rare skin conditions.
As the Associate Director of Clinical Research, I also spend time on clinical research projects including clinical trials.
- Research interest for patients
-
My research has focused on epidermolysis bullosa, including gene therapy, clinical trials, care of adults, and investigating the development of squamous cell carcinoma.
In the last few years, my research interests have expanded to include hidradenitis suppurativa and immunobullous diseases.
- Volunteer activities
I volunteer at Camp Spirit (a winter camp for children with recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa) and Camp Wonder (a summer camp for children with skin diseases).
