About

Biography

I am an assistant professor in the Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences at The Ohio State University College of Medicine, and my research focuses on using advanced ophthalmic imaging biomarkers to improve the diagnosis, management and prognostication of retinal diseases. I specialize in retinal conditions including central serous chorioretinopathy, diabetic retinopathy and age-related macular degeneration.

My research interests center on understanding how ophthalmic imaging can provide meaningful biomarkers for retinal disease and help inform clinical decision-making. I have published more than 30 peer-reviewed articles, including work in the American Journal of Ophthalmology, the British Journal of Ophthalmology and Ophthalmology Retina. I also serve as a reviewer for scientific journals.

Mentorship is an important part of my academic work. The guidance I received from dedicated retina specialists helped shape my own career, and I am passionate about supporting future physicians and researchers as they identify their interests and develop their own career paths. Through mentorship, research and education, I hope to extend the impact of my work beyond the patients I directly care for.
