I am a Clinical Neurophysiologist, and my medical practice includes both epilepsy and intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM).

As an Epileptologist, I serve people with epilepsy and evaluate them, if appropriate, for epilepsy surgery and neuromodulation. I work alongside a multidisciplinary team of epileptologists, neuropsychologists, radiologists, and neurosurgeons to identify people for whom such treatment options may be beneficial.

Intraoperatively, I primarily carry out real-time functional brain mapping and electrocorticography in concert with a team of technologists, surgeons, and anesthesiologists. Additionally, I am trained in intraoperative monitoring for a diverse range of procedures (spinal, vascular, etc.).

My broad research interests include the implementation of innovative technologies in patient-care, including smartphone, wearable, and implantable remote disease monitoring solutions. I am also interested in the utilization of EEG and quantitative EEG in multimodality monitoring for the care of critically ill patients.

I work directly with medical trainees of all levels (medical students, residents, and fellows) and have been honored to receive multiple teaching awards throughout my career.
