Teaching and Research Interests / Recent Publications or Scholarly Output
I am an educator and radiographer who is deeply passionate about true simulation-based learning and the power of dynamic laboratory experiences to transform clinical readiness. I design high-fidelity, immersive scenarios that push students to think critically, communicate clearly, and navigate the realities of patient care. My work blends radiography, nursing, and other disciplines to create realistic, interprofessional learning environments that prepare learners for the complexity of real world healthcare. My love for simulation is grounded in my own bedside practice. With a background in critical care imaging, pediatric radiography, and Level 1 trauma, I bring the pace, challenges, and decision making of high acuity settings directly into the classroom and lab. I believe students learn best when the training feels real, meaningful, and connected to the patients and teams they will serve, and that philosophy guides everything I create.
