She completed her MD, PhD, post-doctoral fellowship, and neurology residency at Penn State before going on to complete a fellowship in autoimmune neurology at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota.

She is devoted to the care of patients affected by antibody-mediated disorders of the nervous system, both autoimmune and paraneoplastic. Areas of focus include: autoimmune encephalitis, neurosarcoidosis, neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD), myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody disease (MOGAD), stiff person syndrome, myelopathy/transverse myelitis, central nervous system complications of rheumatologic disease, and autoimmune neurologic complications of immune deficiency.
