I have dedicated my professional life to advocating for and generating high quality anatomy education and research content to positively impact patient outcomes.To accomplish this goal, I have taken on three roles:

1) As an assistant professor, I am pursuing my passion as an anatomy educator. Using this experience, I engage with students to identify gaps in traditional education pedagogy.

2) As a research scientist, I am collaborating with clinicians (pain interventionalists, surgeons, physiatrist, and regional anesthesiologists) to bring research from the anatomy lab to the clinic. This bench-to-bedside collaboration enables our team to use evidence-based anatomical findings to inform clinical trials.

3) As Cofounder of DARA3D Inc., I am leading a team focused on the mission of utilizing immersive technology as a knowledge translation medium for researchers and educators. Through the use of 3D, AR, and VR technologies, anatomical content/research findings can be more effectively disseminated to end users.
