Biography

I am a Board-Certified Dermatologist who enjoys taking care of all patients with skin, hair, and nail conditions and diseases. I have both clinical and research interests in hair and scalp disorders and skin of color dermatologic conditions, however, I enjoy seeing the skin disease of all kinds including Cosmetic Dermatology and skin cancers.  I have published over 100 journal articles and delivered over 250 lectures nationally and internationally on many topics in Dermatology including: acne, melasma, hyperpigmentation, hair loss, psoriasis, and eczema. I enjoy connecting with many national Dermatology societies and have held leadership positions in many of these organizations. 

I have been at Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center for 25 years and am the Chair of the Dermatology Department. I enjoy helping to build the Dermatology research unit, training the next generation of Dermatologists, and oversee the Cosmetic Dermatology Unit. When I am not at work, I enjoy spending time with family and traveling.
