Personal Statement

During my fellowship, I did clinical research on subcutaneous testosterone as gender-affirming hormone therapy in transgender adolescents. I also completed a quality improvement project to improve patient education on stress steroid dosing for adrenal insufficiency using a “steroid action plan” similar to an asthma action plan. My clinical interests in pediatric endocrinology and diabetes are broad; I am open to participating in all kinds of projects and enjoy collaborating with other divisions and departments!
