Research Description
I am a board-certified cardiologist, NIH-funded physician-scientist, and Fellow of the American Heart Association whose work bridges clinical cardiology, vascular biology and translational immunology. My career has been shaped by a commitment to understanding the inflammatory mechanisms that drive cardiovascular disease with the goal of transforming those discoveries into strategies that will improve patient care.

Currently, I serve as an Assistant Professor of Medicine in the Division of Cardiovascular Medicine at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, with secondary appointments in Molecular Physiology and Biophysics and in Pathology, Microbiology, and Immunology at Vanderbilt University. My research program focuses on inflammation resolution, myeloid biology, trained immunity, and atherosclerosis, with the goal of identifying new therapeutic pathways to target residual cardiovascular risk.

As a clinician, I care for patients through the inpatient cardiology consult service as well as the Vanderbilt Lipid Clinic. These roles have afforded me the privilege of participating in several clinical trials focused on lipid management, lipoprotein(a), familial lipid disorders, and implementation strategies to improve management of cholesterol after hospitalization for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.

Through my complementary roles as both a clinician and a basic-translational research scientist, I aim to accelerate scientific discovery, develop the next generation of physician-scientists, and improve the lives of patients with cardiovascular disease.
