I am a postdoctoral researcher at the Center for Innovation to Implementation within the VA Palo Alto Health Care System and at the Stanford-Surgery Policy Improvement Research and Education (S-SPIRE) Center within the Department of Surgery, Stanford School of Medicine.
I received my Ph.D. in Epidemiology with a minor in Statistics from the Department of Population Health Sciences at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
My research seeks to answer the following questions:
- How can we reliably differentiate quality of care across health care providers?
- Why does health care quality and/or intervention effectiveness vary across health care providers and patient populations?
- In what ways can we design and apply algorithms to inform clinical decision-making and improve health equity?
