Hi, I’m Dr. Georgia
I’m a board-certified pediatrician, a mom, and a believer in the power of informed parenting.
I have a background in climate health and global child health, and I love talking about how our changing planet impacts children, nature play, and low-waste parenting.
I earned my MD from Florida State University College of Medicine and my Master of Public Health (MPH) from the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, focusing on global child health, climate resilience, and wellness.
How I can help
With years of experience across clinical care, global child health, and public health strategy, I offer consulting services in:
Global Health Initiatives: Bringing child health expertise to global projects and nonprofits.
Public Health Strategy: Advising organizations on climate resilience, child health, and sustainability.
Locum Tenens Pediatric Care: Providing flexible, compassionate care where it's needed most.
