Research Interests

I am passionate about integrating medical simulation technology into the education and training of medical professionals to enhance clinical skills and team performance. I am particularly fascinated by the role of human factors in high-stakes emergency situations and how they influence decision-making and patient outcomes. By studying and applying the principles of Crisis Resource Management, I aim to improve teamwork, communication, and critical thinking, ultimately leading to better care for patients and their families.

Clinical Interests
I am trained in Pediatrics, Pediatric Cardiology, and Intensive Care, with specialized expertise in managing children with congenital heart disease throughout their medical journey. I am deeply committed to providing compassionate, high-quality care to patients from infancy through adulthood, ensuring they receive the best possible treatment before and after surgery. My passion lies in serving not only my patients but also their families, offering guidance, support, and excellence in care at every stage of their health journey.

Care Philosophy
I am dedicated to fostering a culture of quality, safety, and effectiveness in patient care through interdisciplinary collaboration and clear communication. I prioritize patient- and family-centered care, ensuring that every decision and interaction is guided by compassion, respect, and a commitment to achieving the best possible outcomes. I believe that the strongest healthcare teams are built on trust, continuous learning, and a shared commitment to excellence. By embracing innovation and evidence-based practices, I strive to enhance the patient experience while supporting the well-being of families and staff alike. My goal is to create an environment where every patient feels heard, valued, and supported throughout their healthcare journey.
