Biography
I chose a career in medicine because it blends my passions for service and science. As a trauma surgeon, I am committed to providing exceptional care to my patients and their families during their critical time of need. I put the patient at the center of all I do and always infuse an attitude of gratitude and optimism.
My role at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center includes performing emergency general surgeries and treating acute traumatic injuries. I operate on patients with appendicitis and cholecystitis, and treat soft tissue infections, rib fractures, abdominal injuries and hernias. I have extensive experience in minimally invasive surgical techniques and robotics.

Academics and research
In addition to my clinical responsibilities, I serve as director of Grand Rounds, and I am an investigator with the Davis Heart and Lung Research Institute. My research interests are focused on sex-based differences in bleeding and clotting, particularly after traumatic injury. I appreciate the opportunity to use my research to advance medicine and take better care of my patients.
I am also helping to train the next generation of surgeons in my role as an assistant professor in the Department of Surgery at The Ohio State University College of Medicine.

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.
