Biography
I'm an MD PhD clinician scientist in neurology at The Ohio State University. I was awarded a NIH K08 grant funding my work to examine the inflammatory response after traumatic axonal injury under the mentorship of Dr. Segal. In the laboratory, my focus is on immunomodulation after traumatic neuronal injury to stimulate axon regeneration of neurons and improve recovery after optic nerve crush injury and traumatic brain or spinal cord injury. My focus is on the recruitment and enhancement of neuroprotective and regenerative myeloid cells after neuronal injury that can stimulate axon regeneration and recovery from trauma.

Academics and research
I completed my MD and PhD at the Medical University of South Carolina with a research focus in neuroimmunology. I completed my residency in neurology at the University of Michigan where I was chief resident in my final year. I then completed a clinical fellowship in sports neurology and traumatic brain injury at the University of Michigan, and see traumatic brain injury patients in the clinic. I returned to the laboratory during my fellowship with an NIH R25 grant, and continue research with my NIH K08 grant. The goal of my research is to find translational immunotherapy targets to promote healing after traumatic neuronal injury.

Consulting and Related Relationships
At The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, we support a faculty member’s research and consulting in collaboration with medical device, research and/or drug companies because a faculty member’s expertise can guide important advancements in the practice of medicine and improve patient care. In order to provide effective management of these relationships, the University requires annual disclosures from all faculty members with external interests related to their University responsibilities.
