Junior Fellow, American International Institute of Medical Sciences, Engineering and InnovationSelected as a 2026–27 Junior Fellow of the American International Institute of Medical Sciences, Engineering and Innovation after the selection committee reviewed my self-nomination package. The fellowship was a stated goal in my Professional Growth Plan, and the designation places me in a national cohort working at the intersection of health sciences and educational innovation.

01
Service through instructional designFive educational game concepts — across genetics, the nervous system, cardiac health, immunity and human anatomy — built to make science learning reachable for students who struggle with traditional instruction. Designed to be used freely by educators. Explore the games →
02
Service to health-sciences studentsVolunteered instructional time to deliver trauma and hemorrhage education to students entering clinical settings, translating emergency-medicine practice into teaching that non-specialists can act on.
03
Service to the cohortSharing resources, feedback and opportunity announcements with Cohort 13 colleagues, and collaborating on shared research interests so that presentation and publishing opportunities reach the whole group rather than a few.
04
Service through accessible designAccessibility is treated as a design requirement rather than an accommodation across my work — narrated alternatives, enlarged text, seated and step-free routes, and multimodal content, so that the same learning reaches every participant.
05
Responsible citizenshipMy scholarship centers equity in access to technology and advanced coursework, examining how funding disparities limit what schools can offer and advocating for planning that serves the communities absorbing the most growth.
