I am a Research Scientist with the Clinical & Operational Space Medicine Innovation Consortium (COSMIC) (a space medicine focused research group of the Air Force/Defense Health Agency supporting the United States Space Force). In my “free time”, I’m an active contributor to BioAstra, Organization for Space Medicine, Engineering, and Design (OSMED), the National Postdoctoral Association (NPA), and the American Chemical Society (ACS). My research focuses on operational space medicine, aerospace physiology, biomedical technologies, pharmaceutical stability, and translating research into medical capabilities for human performance in extreme and austere environments.
