Statement

I am a general surgery resident at Loyola University Medical Center and a current research associate at the Burn and Shock Trauma Research Institute. My ongoing areas of research are the hematopoietic stem cell responses to thermal burns and polytrauma, as well as the host response to traumatic brain injury.

My dedication to become a trauma surgeon-scientist has been fueled by inspiring patients and supportive mentors, alike. As a member of the Basic and Translational Science Committee, I hope to diligently serve the AAS community and our patients, strengthening the bridge between bench and bedside.

Thank you for your consideration! I would be delighted by the opportunity to contribute my hard work and passion to this committee.
