Summary

My research program reimagines healthcare education for a technologically advanced future, emphasizing learner-centered design principles and sustainable, evidence-based competency development.

I design educational frameworks that promote effective and equitable AI literacy, building upon my NIH-supported foundation in educational intervention research. 

As Principal Investigator on a Program for Medical Education Innovations and Research Grant, I currently lead the development and validation of a generative AI-based approach to performance assessment and feedback of patient education and counseling skills.
