Professional Statement

A child's health should not be dictated by the circumstances they were born into. I firmly believe that everyone deserves access to high quality healthcare. I aspire to provide exemplary high quality care for my patients in the emergency center at Texas Children's Hospital and, concurrently, develop innovations in child health globally, advocate for effective health policy, and train clinicians. At the heart of my work is a passion to improve the health of children here in Houston and globally.

My research is inspired by the clinical care I provide to children in Houston and the three years I spent living in Rwanda and Malawi caring for children and training clinicians. I am a physician-scientist and global child health expert with research focuses in pneumonia and mobile health. My work has been funded by the US National Institutes of Health, The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, and Baylor College of Medicine/Texas Children's Hospital. I am a member of the World Health Organization's Pneumonia Research Partnership to Assess WHO Recommendations (PREPARE) and the Pediatric Acute Lung Injury and Sepsis Investigators Global Health (PALISI-GH) network.

Since medical school advocacy has been a cornerstone of my career. In this vein I have held multiple state and national level elected and appointed positions in organized medicine. I provided technical assistance to the Ministries of Health of Malawi and Rwanda and have authored policy for the American Medical Association. My ideas have been featured in the Houston Chronicle and other national/international media outlets.
