I completed my fellowship in chronic and interventional pain at St. Michael’s hospital at the University of Toronto. In addition to the treatment of chronic pain my fellowship focused on interventional techniques to prevent the progression chronic pain using different imaging modalities (xray and ultrasound guidance).

My research interests are focused on developing new techniques to manage patients’ suffering from chronic pain using interventional techniques. As well my current focus is on medical education specifically undergraduate medical education. I am completing a masters of education to help with curriculum development and evaluation in all areas of training.

Outside of clinical practice I am interested in aerospace and aviation medicine.
