Career
Biomedical Engineering is a rapidly evolving field that includes many complex focuses. The two areas in which I am most devoted are 1) the biotechnological development of hemostatic agents which aim to decrease mortality rates among emergency trauma victims as well as 2) the psychosocial and medical obstacles surrounding the prevention and treatment of disease in underprivileged populations. The specific inventions which initially sparked my passion in this field were XStat and VetiGel, which can each be seen in more depth below.
Additionally, I have done a significant amount of research in the field of biomedicine-- including the medical transportation of biological material from donor to recipient, as well as the international transfer of medical supplies to underdeveloped communities. I have also taken on research projects on topics such as psychosocial concerns with HIV and AIDS, hemostatic management of traumatic bleeding, and the biomechanical effects of load on the lumbar spine.
Below, you can explore some of the research and reports I have completed to date.
