About
I am currently a medical student at the University of British Columbia with interests in surgery, trauma, and critical care medicine.
Following a 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 Harvard University.
Outside of academia I can generally be found on a bike, in the mountains, or making something (beer, furniture, shoes, etc).
Research
Most of my work has been on traumatic brain injury, though my interests have broadened to encompass topics in surgery, trauma, and critical care medicine. I have specific expertise in quantitative neuroimaging methods and meta-analysis. My thesis work included the first meta-analysis on TBI among people living in homelessness (1) and my work in Boston focused on lesion and neuroimaging-derived brain circuits underlying addiction (2).
Currently I am working on projects looking at rural trauma care and the utility of whole blood resuscitation in traumatic hemorrhage.
