About

Biography

One of the benefits of working at Ohio State are the numerous opportunities for education. I was drawn to Ohio State by the opportunity to teach medical students, residents and fellows. It’s my privilege to educate future medical providers through lecturing first year medical students during their musculoskeletal (MSK) block and also serving as the director of the fourth year medical student sports medicine clerkship. I am an assistant program director for our primary care sports medicine fellowship program.

I routinely collaborate with other physicians and scientists to publish original research, case reports and book chapters. I led a multidisciplinary group of physicians to publish original research on the use of MSK Ultrasound as an adjunct to MSK anatomic education. I also was the primary author and editor of an interactive ibook to teach the MSK physical examination.

I continue to seek opportunities to learn about the latest advancements in MSK and Sports Medicine. I am proficient in innovative technologies and procedures like MSK ultrasound, platelet rich plasma (PRP) injections, Tenex (percutaneous tenotomy), and extra corporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT).
