I joined the Baylor International Pediatric AIDS Initiative’s Pediatric AIDS Corps program in 2007, and worked for a year in Lesotho, prior to fellowship training in pediatric hematology/oncology at the Children’s Hospital and Research Center in Oakland, California.  I plan to contribute to both the HIV program and the hematology/oncology program as a member of the Texas Children’s Global Health Service Corps. and hope to identify appropriate sites to provide mentorship in the creation of a hematology/oncology program.
