Summary

  • Fellowship trained in regional anesthesia and acute pain medicine at Johns Hopkins.

    Completed my residency in anesthesiology and internal medicine internship at Massachusetts General Hospital and Thomas Jefferson University Hospital, respectively.


    My ongoing research centers on optimizing perioperative pain utilizing regional anesthesia and non-opioid medications, especially in opioid tolerant and substance use disorder patients. Additionally, I'm passionate about pain education in medical trainees, teaching, and science outreach via social media.

Research History

  • Medical Student Researcher in Anesthesiologywith Eugene Viscusi: Retrospective analysis of early ketamine infusion after limb amputation; Prospective study on impact of baseline opioid use, addiction, stress, & coping on perioperative pain ratings & analgesic requirements following total knee or hip replacement2015 - 2016
  • Visiting Researcher (continued work off-site) at Cleveland Clinic Neurological Center for PainInvestigating pain and chronic opioid use with Dr. Edward Covington and Dr. Judith Scheman. Clinical pain research 2 new IRB protocols: 1) Retrospective study of outcomes of long-term (>1 year) chronic opioid therapy 2) Prospective analysis of PTSD, stress, & coping & outcomes from pain rehab pts2014 - 2015
  • PhD dissertation work with Dr. Elisabeth Van Bockstaele and Dr. Bob SterlingI studied the impact of stress on opioid dependence recovery in MMT and a novel mu-opioid receptor interacting protein that could be a target for future pain and addiction therapeutics. Electron Microscopy & imaging in rat model opioid addiction + Salivary Cortisol & psych work in methadone pts2011 - 2013
  • PhD StudentUnder Dr. Michael O'Leary I studied the effects of STZ induced diabetic neuropathy in rat dorsal root ganglion neurons. Specifically I looked at electrophysiological and mRNA changes in voltage gated sodium channels.2009 - 2011
  • PhD Rotation StudentUnder Dr. Raymond Regan I worked on a in-vitro cell culture model of hemolysis and clot lysis that mimics hemorrhagic stroke. We investigated the role of glia in blood clot toxicity to neurons in a co-culture system and the viability of this model to do preliminary screening for stroke intervention2008 - 2009
  • Research AssistantUnder Dr. M. Buck through the Summer Undergraduate Research Program I studied “Using Coiled Coil Fusion Proteins to Investigate the Function of the Plexin Receptor Involved in Blood Vessel Guidance”. I received additional funding from the American Heart Association fellowship to prolong fellowship2006 - 2006
  • Research AssistantUnder Dr. J. Moore and Dr. V Pandey through the Chester Summer Scholars Program I studied the “Comparison of Repetitively Stretched Human Fetal Membranes from Spontaneous Vaginal Deliveries and Caesarian Sections”. I presented this research at two poster presentations and contributed to the publicat2005 - 2005
