How to Apply

If you want to join our Pediatric Emergency Medicine fellowship, submit your application through the National Residency Match Program (NRMP) and its Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS).

Information on our program can be obtained at any time, but formal inquiries and evaluation for interview selection begin each July. Deadlines for ERAS participation may vary each year but are outlined at the NRMP website.

However, our program will consider applications through November for interviews and will base our ranking decisions on the merits of applicant education, research and professional experience as well as interview impression.

Residents who are interested in completing an away rotation with us for their elective are encouraged to reach out to us for more information.

If you want to inquire about our program, reach out by phone, mail or email:

In my free time… : I enjoy working in my Covid garden, working on the many home projects we have going, and listening to true crime podcasts.
Other things to know about me: I have a wonderful husband and a beautiful, feisty teenage daughter. We also have several cats (some might say too many, but we love them all) and one dog. I am very crafty. I can make a flower from almost anything and I am very handy with duct tape.
