At this point in my career, I contribute to collaborative research. My primary interests include health policy and physician well-being. I am interested in how health policy at multiple levels influences inpatient care delivery and outcomes. Similarly, I am interested in how institutional and governmental policies intersect with physician resilience factors to influence well-being in medicine.
My educational interests include teaching residents and fellows how to make decisions in a complex patient population, how to communicate with patients and families regarding critical illness, and how to support trainee well-being in high-stakes clinical environments.
