I am a Tenure Track Assistant Professor in the College of Medicine at The Ohio State University and a formally trained Implementation Scientist with 15 years of research experience. As Principal Investigator, I currently lead a $1.6 million research portfolio funded across two institutes of the National Institutes of Health. My research focuses on: (1) designing and testing strategies for equitable and cost-effective implementation; (2) disentangling implementation mechanisms and outcomes for generalizability across contexts, and (3) advancing hybrid effectiveness-implementation approaches. I am particularly interested in improving healthcare practice and policy to address traumatic brain injury in vulnerable populations. I also provide implementation expertise on projects across disease areas (chronic pain management, substance use disorder, chronic brain injury and psychological comorbidity, contraception care, cardiovascular care, and spinal cord injury), working closely with patients, clinicians, organizational, and policy-leaders.

To date, I have published over 50 publications, including 30 scientific journal articles and 21 government reports. My research has been published in Implementation Science, Implementation Science Communications, Global Implementation Research and Applications, the Journal of Head Trauma Rehabilitation, and the Journal of Clinical and Translational Sciences, among others. I am on the Editorial Board of the Journal of Head Trauma Rehabilitation and for Implementation Science Communications. I have served as the Co-Chair of the National Traumatic Brain Injury Model Systems Implementation Science Special Interest Group for the past three years. I am a Fellow of the Implementation Research Institute through Washington University, St. Louis, funded by the National Institute of Mental Health, and have also completed a fellowship on designing adaptive interventions and adaptive trials through the Data Science for Dynamic Intervention Decision-Making Center (d3center) at the University of Michigan, funded by the National Cancer Institute.

I am happy to consult on implementation science projects and engage in speaking events.
