About
I am currently a medical student at the University of British Columbia with interests in trauma and critical care medicine.
Following my Bachelor's in Kinesiology at UBC, I completed a PhD in Experimental Medicine with the support of the Vanier and Killam Scholarships. In 2022, I was a Visiting Scholar with Dr. Michael Fox at the Center for Brain Circuit Therapeutics at Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School.
Outside of academia I can generally be found on a bike, in the mountains, or making something (beer, furniture, shoes, etc).
Research
I am primarily interested in using meta-analysis and quantitative neuroimaging to understand brain-behaviour relationships, prognosticate outcome after brain injury, and identify therapeutic targets.
My thesis work included the first meta-analysis on the prevalence of traumatic brain injury among individuals living in homelessness. As a Visiting Scholar in Boston, I used network mapping to evaluate brain circuits linked to substance use disorder.
I am currently working on how we can use advanced neuroimaging to prognosticate outcome after traumatic brain injury.
