• MD, Brody School of Medicine at East Carolina University (North Carolina), 1993

• Pediatrics, Medical University of South Carolina, 1993-1996

• Pediatric Cardiology, Mount Sinai Medical Center (New York), 1996-1999
• Interventional Cardiac Catheterization, Cleveland Clinic (Ohio), 1999-2003

Clinical Interests:
Interventional catheterization procedures for pediatric and adult patients, adult and pediatric congenital heart disease, percutaneous ASD and VSD closure, PDA and FPO closure, intravascular stent placement, coil-occlusion procedures

Research Interests:
Children and adults with congenital heart disease through clinical trials to advance the technology available to patients in the interventional cardiac catheterization laboratory using stents for coarctation of the aorta, transcatheter pulmonary stent valve technology, septal closure devices, vascular occlusion devices, and transcatheter management of septal defects in stroke patients.
