I’m a PhD-trained scientist specializing in wound biology and immunology, with a focus on translating clinical and mechanistic evidence into real-world practice.
My work sits at the intersection of research, clinical education, and scientific communication. I enjoy taking complex biological and clinical data and turning it into clear, accurate, and practical materials for clinicians and healthcare organizations.
Alongside my academic training, I contribute as a scientific writer and content developer with the Save a Leg, Save a Life Foundation, where I support wound-focused educational and communications projects. These experiences reinforced my interest in evidence-based education and publication support for busy clinicians.
I’m interested in collaborating with clinicians to turn quality-improvement work, case series, and educational initiatives into submission-ready manuscripts and other high-impact educational materials.
