    I am a Professor of Pediatrics in the Department of Pediatrics at the University of Utah. I trained at the University of Minnesota, School of Medicine in Pediatrics and completed my fellowship in Developmental Pediatrics at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia. While there, I was hired as a consultant to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention at the National Center for Birth Defects and Developmental Disabilities participating in the research on autism and cerebral palsy. I continued my interest in developmental disabilities while working at both Cincinnati Children’s Hospital and Medical Center as well as at The Ohio State University in their Department of Pediatrics. At The Ohio State University and Cincinnati Children’s Medical Center, I directed the Cerebral Palsy Clinic; served as a developmental consultant in the Neonatal Follow-up Clinic; and directed the Spina Bifida Clinic. In 2006, I joined the Department of Pediatrics, University of Utah and have been able to continue my work in furthering a positive impact on expanding research and services for children and youth with a wide variety of developmental disabilities and their families.

    Currently, I am the Medical Director of the University Developmental Assessment Clinics, including the Neonatal Follow-Up Program.  I am the Principal Investigator for the Utah Regional LEND grant and serve on several other grants to oversee the follow-up components of neonatal and cardiac treatments, including the Cerebral Palsy Foundation’s grant on early detection of and intervention for cerebral palsy.
