Vascular Surgery
Centre Hospitalier de l'Université de Montréal
I am an Assistant Professor of Surgery in Vascular Surgery in Montreal, QC, Canada. I have served on several committees in the Society for Vascular Surgery (SVS) and Canadian Society for Vascular Surgery (CSVS) as it pertains to DEI, wellness and burnout, and Young Surgeons Committee. I have been involved in the AAS for several years from the Fall Courses to the hybrid meetings. The AAS has allowed me to grow as a senior trainee and early career surgeon as I aspire to be a budding academic vascular surgeon. My goal is to increase my engagement in the AAS as a Canadian member. I am currently pursuing the SVS Leadership Development Program, and hope to translate this experience to the AAS, while learning and engaging with the AAS members and leaders. I am passionate and motivated and look forward to contributing to the AAS!
