A little bit about myself...
Throughout my career, I have walked three paths: one of service, one of creativity, and one of knowledge. In my journey, I have had the great privilege of working with a diverse group of patients around the world and building with colleagues interested in infusing innovation into the fabric of healthcare. I've advocated for my refugee patients and worked to bring technology into medical education by co-founding the AR/VR Initiative at Jefferson's Digital Innovation and Consumer Experience Group. With the support of the incredible teams I work with, I lead the first research study of its kind examining virtual reality (VR) in outpatient cardiac rehabilitation and invented an innovative and immersive simulator that uses VR to to train healthcare providers to manage acute cardiac events.

I'm excited to bring my background in intercultural health and healthcare innovation to my clinical practice as I embark on the next incredible phase of my career as a resident physician in Emergency Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine. As a physician, I work towards providing quality care for my patients and enhancing their experiences within the larger healthcare system.
