In my current roles, I am actively involved in the clinical, educational, and organizational aspects of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at both local and national levels. As an Associate Professor and practicing physiatrist, I provide care in both academic and community settings. As Director of Osteopathic Education, I provide educational support for local PM&R, FM, and ONMM residencies. On a national level, I contribute by speaking at PM&R conferences and annual meetings, engaging with residents and faculty, and regularly presenting lectures and workshops at AOCPMR, AAPM&R, AAP, and AAO events. Additionally, I write exam questions and serve as an oral board examiner for both the American Board of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation and the American Osteopathic Board of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation.  This varied experience gives me a unique perspective and advantage, enabling me to advance AOCPMR’s mission by staying deeply connected to the educational standards, clinical needs, and professional development of physiatrists at all stages, while supporting a sustainable and osteopathic-focused vision for our specialty.
