She has over 6 years of hands-on experience in diagnosing and treating motor neuron disease patients. She serves as the site principal investigator for several multi-center Phase I, II and III clinical trials in ALS.

She contributes to ALS research in a highly resourceful and multi-disciplinary collaborative environment at the Sean M Healy & AMG Center for ALS at MGH, in close collaboration with global leaders in the field of ALS research.

She has extensive training in clinical and translational research, including a Master’s in Public Health (University of Maryland School of Public Health), Clinical and Translational Research Academy certificate program (Harvard Medical school), and the NIH-NINDS clinical trials methodology course. She has over five years of post-medical degree clinical and translational research experience at MGH (2016-Present), as well as previously at Cleveland Clinic Foundation (2011-2015) and University of Maryland School of Public Health (2006-2009).
