About me
A scientist, educator, and builder
in medical education.
I teach, study how people learn, and turn complex science into interactive experiences.
My work brings together biomedical research, educational technology, and game design. I’m interested in what we can create when those disciplines—and the people behind them—work together.
I develop learning experiences that help future health professionals make sense of complex science.
I study how people learn—and how we can use that knowledge to teach more effectively.
I build digital tools and simulations that give learners a way to explore complex concepts for themselves.
I design games around medical and scientific concepts, bringing learning into the experience of play.
Teaching brings the questions. Research helps me investigate them. Design and development give me ways to put ideas into practice. Together, they shape how I approach a learning challenge—and what I build next.

Have a teaching challenge, a research question, or an idea for a learning tool? I’d love to hear it. Half-formed ideas welcome.
