Clinical Interests
I'm interested in helping people throughout the age spectrum get better quality sleep. I am the sleep specialist for the pediatric lifestyle medicine clinic, pediatric bariatric surgery multidisciplinary clinic, and the Prader Willi multidisciplinary clinic. I specialize in the care of medically complex children, frequently managing sleep disorders and respiratory conditions for patients seen in Children's Special Care Clinic. I'm interested in obesity and sleep apnea, complex (mixed central and obstructive) sleep apnea, and PAP and ventilator management. I'm interested in ADHD and autism related sleep disruption and insomnia. I strive to be an ally to the LGBTQIA+ community and women. I have a BA in Spanish and speak/understand limited Spanish. I see patients under 18 years at Children's Hospital Colorado at Anschutz Medical Campus and patients over 18 years at the UCHealth Sleep Clinic in the Leprino Building also on Anschutz Medical Campus.
