Supramolecular Motion & Neural Regeneration
NMR-based study of molecular motion and structure–function relationships in bioactive supramolecular scaffolds.
MEDICAL STUDENT
Exploring vascular interventional radiology through image-guided therapy, clinical research, and procedural innovation.

ABOUT
I'm a TCU Burnett medical student with a background in neuroscience and chemistry from Northwestern University.
Through WCVIS Texas, I launched and lead VIR Decoded, an education and outreach series that makes interventional radiology more accessible to trainees.
IR draws me because one specialty can stop a hemorrhage, open a blocked artery to save a limb, and treat a tumor without a large incision. The same physician reads the images, makes the diagnosis, and performs the procedure that changes a patient's life.

LEADERSHIP & INVOLVEMENT
As Advertising Chair for the WCVIS 2027 Symposium, I lead event advertising and social media outreach, designing on-brand flyers, the symposium program, and speaker spotlights. I help recruit trainee cases for the Angio Club competition and provide live coverage during the symposium.
Member since May 2026 · Symposium Feb 2027As Education Chair, I launched VIR Decoded, the chapter's education series introducing trainees to the IR consult, procedural planning, and life in the VIR suite. I also develop chapter content and promote the regional symposium to expand access to vascular interventional radiology education.
As Digital Media Co-Chair, I lead digital communications and support virtual journal club programming. I coordinate online logistics and content that connect trainees with current interventional radiology literature.
Aug 2026–PresentAs Experiential Learning Lead, I coordinate specialty talks, suturing sessions, Step 1 review, and cadaver-based activities. I develop educational experiences that connect preclinical learning with surgical skills and specialty exposure.
May 2026–PresentAs Vice President, I coordinate programming at the intersection of business and medicine, including speaker events and student-focused educational initiatives. I support event planning, outreach, and logistics that expose students to healthcare management, finance, and the business aspects of medical practice.
Oct 2025–PresentAs Events Chair, I organized specialty-focused events with physician speakers from initial concept through execution. I managed speaker outreach, scheduling, promotion, and event logistics to deliver structured educational experiences for students.
Oct 2025–Jul 2026Mentor fourth-grade students through monthly leadership lessons focused on communication, teamwork, and empathy. Collaborate with teachers and volunteers to facilitate interactive activities that promote character development, civic engagement, and confidence.
Sep 2025–May 2026Provide clinical support at a free clinic serving uninsured adults by assisting with patient histories, physical exams, and health education under physician supervision. Work alongside an interdisciplinary team to coordinate care and address barriers to accessing healthcare.
