• My professional interests include Maternal Fetal Medicine and Sonography, and I have a passion for teaching motivated adults. I have had the privilege and honor to teach Medical Students, Residents, and Fellows as well as Registered Nurses, Nurse Practitioners and Midwives.
• At USC where I was clinical faculty, I provided hands on instruction as well as lectures for the MFM Fellows and OB/GYN residents. I was instrumental in organizing and developing an ultrasound rotation for the OB/GYN residents at the University of Kansas and at the University of Missouri in Columbia. I was awed at seeing them develop the ultrasound skills that will be used throughout their career. I am determined and proactive in getting things done and always looking for teaching opportunities for my students because I learn from them even as I teach.
