Hi, I'm Dr. Collier! My interest for pursuing a career in medicine was sparked in early childhood around the age of 10. I had a younger family member diagnosed with a neurologic disorder and I wanted to learn how I could help her. I would ask my family and my own pediatrician countless questions.

I'm from Fort Worth, Texas and volunteered at Cook Children's for the first time in high school. I was amazed by the world of healthcare and was determined to become a physician. I always had a love for pediatrics specifically, but this was solidified after several encounters with children. From caring for children on a medical brigade in Panama, treating babies in the clinic in medical school, to caring for my own children. I love being able to care for children of all ages, be apart of building the foundation for healthy growth and development, and medical education. It excites me to know that I'm helping my patients develop into healthy adults.

As a parent myself, I've learned that all kids are different. I enjoy earning the trust of families and also helping them navigate caring for their children. When I'm not working, I'm usually spending quality time with my family and friends. I enjoy sporting events, watching ESPN, and game nights with family and friends that include singing, dancing, and good food. As a recent residency graduate, I'm looking forward to caring for children and connecting with families in the community.
