Biography

"I am an instructor of emergency medicine at Emory University School of Medicine. My residency and now early career have been intrinsically linked with AWAEM, and for this reason I would be honored to continue my involvement in this intentional way as VP Membership. My AWAEM journey began with a leadership position as I dove in head first as the resident member of AWAEM’s Executive Committee. In my one year term in this position, I became the project manager for a citation and literature review with over 40 medical student, resident, and attending volunteers. I also co-founded and served as a panelist in a collaborative webinar between AWAEM and RAMS, From Match to First Promotion, to support professional development and mentorship during the pandemic. I feel uniquely suited to serve as a mentor for the AWAEM Executive Committee’s resident member as I recently served in this position and have a keen understanding of the scope and opportunities within that role.

As first-year faculty, I sought to diversify my AWAEM leadership experience by serving as the AWAEM Didactic Committee co-chair, overseeing the submission of over twenty didactics to SAEM22 with feedback and support from AWAEM. I used this opportunity to strengthen AWAEM’s relationship with the Sex & Gender in EM Interest Group, collaborating with SGEM members on creating educational content for transgender care delivery in the ED and amplifying transgender EM physician voices. As VP Membership, I will use my early career status to my advantage, with a focus on continuing to innovate collaboration between AWAEM and its resident and medical student members. I am thrilled to continue my forward momentum with this incredible group."
