Dr. Shannon joined South Riding Pediatrics in 2003 and became a partner in the practice in 2006. She attended the University of Delaware and Philadelphia’s MCP Hahnemann School of Medicine and completed her residency at Rainbow Babies and Children’s Hospital in Cleveland, Ohio. Born and raised in Pennsylvania, Dr. Shannon decided to go into medicine between High School and College. Looking for a way to combine her love of science and a desire to work with kids, she found pediatrics was the answer! When Dr. Shannon has free time, she enjoys the theater and movies, reading, traveling and learning more about her interest in photography. She also enjoys spending time with her friends and family, especially her two adorable nieces.
