I am a hospital medicine physician interested in quality improvement, patient safety, and medical education across the UME and GME environments. My current projects include work on readmissions, inpatient quality and patient experience measures, appropriate utilization of inpatient resources, systematic reviews of topics related to healthcare quality, and artificial intelligence in medical education. Alongside this work, I serve as the lead mentor for our Durham VA Chief Resident in Quality and Safety within the Department of Medicine and the Program Director for the Duke University Hospital CRQS.

As Associate Program Director for Quality Improvement and Patient Safety in the Duke Internal Medicine Residency Program, I oversee QI and safety education and projects for our residents and help co-lead our Residency Patient Safety and Quality Council. Additionally, I supervise housestaff and students on our general medicine wards, precept housestaff evidence-based medicine resident reports, and serve as a small group leader for our second-year medical student Clinical Skills Course. Finally, I lead our Innovation Sciences thread as part of the ongoing School of Medicine Curriculum Innovation Initiative and serve as a co-course director for our QMDM II (Biostatistics) course.
