Provider Expertise

Clinical Interest for Patients

I help lead national clinical trials and give second opinions for other institutions for pediatric high-grade glioma, including diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG), diffuse midline glioma, and radiation-induced glioma. I also specialize in the diagnosis and management of other childhood tumors of the brain and spinal cord.


Care Philosophy

I am committed to providing exceptional child- and family-centered care to my patients. I strive to communicate information truthfully to families at all times, and in an age-appropriate way to patients throughout childhood. As part of a team that includes physicians, advanced practice practitioners, nurses, social workers, and others, I aim to provide the highest quality, most innovative care to all patients from Colorado and beyond, to maximize cure rates and minimize adverse effects of treatment.

Research Interests for Patients

My research focuses on novel targets and therapies for pediatric high-grade glioma, including diffuse midline glioma, diffuse hemispheric glioma, and radiation-induced glioma. In my lab, we work to discover and exploit innovative, rational targets in these tumors, and to bring novel treatments against these targets through laboratory models of these diseases to early-phase clinical trials. We are also interested in combination therapy, resistance to therapy, and methods to bypass the blood-brain barrier. I also have a separate research effort investigating and addressing demographic, socioeconomic, and geographic disparities in pediatric cancer outcomes.
