Bio:  My journey into the field of orthotics and prosthetics began as an undergraduate research assistant at Vanderbilt University, where I was part of a team focused on pediatric prosthetic devices. Throughout my time in the lab, I had the privilege of meeting incredible individuals—patients, clinicians, educators, and friends—who inspired me to pursue a career in patient care. Their impact continues to motivate me every day. At Boston O&P, I am fortunate to collaborate with some of the best in the field as we work together to enhance our patients' lives. I am deeply committed to providing individualized specialty care and empowering patients. My previous experience includes working as a prosthetic resident in Nashville, TN, and volunteering at a prosthetic clinic in Guatemala through the Range of Motion Project, a non-profit organization. I am eager to apply these experiences to ensure the highest quality of patient care.
