Qualitative research
Mixed methods research
Musculoskeletal (MSK) and sports rehabilitation
Digital health implementation
Models of care in rehabilitation
Current Focus: Postdoctoral research on innovative care models and the integration of digital health solutions for MSK pain management.
My work bridges the gap between clinical practice and digital health technology, aiming to improve patient outcomes through evidence-informed strategies. My clinical expertise lies in management and treatment of traumatic knee injuries (e.g., ACL injuries). I currently work part time at a local physiotherapy clinic and teach within the Master of Physical Therapy program at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver Canada.

Paincast is dedicated to bringing together researchers, clinicians, and students to discuss topics related to pain and physiotherapy. The primary purpose is to facilitate knowledge translation and critical thinking. Some episodes posit themselves as more educational than others, and some more opinionated than others. The listener is encouraged to listen critically. While there is an effort to incorporate research evidence, and the topics are always researched by the host, we recognize there is room for improvement and there is expertise in the community. As such, we invite constructive critique and that you inform us of any inadvertent errors, so that we may correct them.
