get to know me

I chose my specialty because...

I love working with babies and children. They are so innocent and resilient. I know if I do my job, they will do theirs and get well fast.


I chose to work at Dayton Children's because...

Dayton is my home. I grew up in Centerville and my parents and sister live in town. I know the community and the hospital here and knew it was a great opportunity for me.


Dayton Children's is special because....

we are one of only 46 freestanding children's hospitals in the nation. Our community is very lucky to have such a wonderful resource right here in town.

Dayton Survey

Dr. Christian was very good with my daughter. He made her feel at ease about her surgery and that made the whole process a lot easier for me as a mom! The staff before and after my daughter's surgery were amazing!
