Summary

As a member of the Seattle Children's Heart Center, I have the role of care provider in both the inpatient and outpatient setting. I am also a member of the Section of Diagnostic and Interventional Cardiac Catheterization where I perform procedures such as diagnostic catheterization for heart transplant rejection and coronary artery vasculopathy, pre-operative diagnostic catheterizations, transcatheter valve replacements (Melody and Harmony valves), shunt occlusion (ASD/VSD/PDA), establishment of stable pulmonary blood flow in neonates with cyanotic heart disease (ductal stenting), relief of aortic and pulmonary valve stenoses, as well as deployment of advanced Heart Failure mechanical life support (Impella and Protek Duo).

I have participated in multiple industry clinical device trials as well as pharmaceutical anticoagulation research in pediatrics.
