She completed her residency at Maria Fareri Children’s Hospital at Westchester Medical Center. She earned her medical degree at Albany Medical College after completing the Siena College/Albany Medical College Humanities in Medicine Program.

“During my fourth year of medical school at Albany Medical College, I did my student rotation with the Pediatric Infectious Disease Division Chief Dr. Debra Tristram, and that solidified my desire to pursue pediatric infectious disease,” said Dr. Daniel. “It’s exciting to be back at Albany Medical Center, but this time as Dr. Tristram’s junior colleague. I wouldn’t want to do anything else, anywhere else!”

During her fellowship, Dr. Daniel was a medical officer with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, taking part in the clinical review of new antimicrobial study protocols and large-scale safety and efficacy data analysis.
