Hi, I’m Ali Serpe! I’m the Director of Wellness and one of the faculty members in the Department of Emergency Medicine. My passion for wellness started in residency, where I helped create a peer support program, pregnancy scheduling policies, bereavement support, and opt-out mental health counseling, among other evidence-based initiatives. I’ve brought that same passion to WashU, where I’m especially focused on using evidence-based strategies to boost professional fulfillment and make medicine more sustainable for everyone.
When I’m not at work, you’ll likely find me on my Peloton, cooking plant-based meals from my favorite cookbook (Bad Manners), traveling, cheering on the Cincinnati Bengals, or exploring STL with my husband and our two dogs.
