Biosketch
As the Assistant Director of the Master’s in Genetic Counseling Training Program, I play an active role in clinical coordination, student research, education, and mentorship. I leverage the skills that I learned as a prenatal genetic counselor at the Center for Advanced Fetal Care at the University of Maryland from 2017-2024 in my education of our trainees.
