General Info

My mother is a nurse practitioner. From the time I was young, I wanted to be a doctor. \n When I was a teenager, my grandfather had a massive stroke, and one of my closest friends was diagnosed with brain cancer in the same year. As a result of those dual experiences, I felt called to neurology. I wanted to help make this world better for those with neurological diseases. \n As I furthered my training, I realized my heart was called to headache disorders and to obstetric neurology, so I continued my training through fellowship opportunities. I am proud to serve the Charlotte area as a subspecialist in these two areas. I'm a board-certified headache specialist. \n I have found that patients often know their body and their symptoms better than anyone. Every patient has their own story to tell. When doctors listen closely to those stories, it's easier for us to determine the right diagnosis and the right plan for that patient. No two patients are alike, and each deserves individualized care. \n At Novant Health, I serve as lead neurologist in the greater Charlotte area, vice chair of the physician governance committee, head of the comprehensive headache center, and founder and head of obstetrics/women's neurology. I'm also communications director for the Southern Headache Society. \n I've published several articles in peer-reviewed journals, and I frequently speak at academic conferences. \n Teaching the physicians of tomorrow is important to me, and I serve as an adjunct professor and fourth-year neurology clerkship director at the UNC School of Medicine branch campus at Novant Health Presbyterian Medical Center; assistant professor at Campbell University School of Osteopathic Medicine; and as a member of the teaching faculty in the Novant Health Family Medicine Residency Program. \n I am married with two growing boys, and my family means the world to me. As a family, we love trail running, mountain biking, kayaking and rock climbing.
