Summary

  • After a fulfilling career in clinical and administrative academic orthopedics, I assumed the role of Medical Director of Philanthropy for MedStar Health. I am deeply engaged and committed to the advocacy of the gratitude model in place at MedStar Health. I am also interested in research around the therapeutic uses of Cannabis and co-host of the podcast, Cannabis Grand Rounds.
