Research Interest
As a medical professional since 1971, I have always held a strong respect for medical accreditation, credentialing, and licensure. It is in these areas that I have made published inquires, hoping to bring improvements to the professions that my students will spend their medical careers.

Teaching Philosophy
Since the content that I teach requires the integration of both cognitive and psychomotor competencies, I believe the teacher has a primary responsibility to, likewise, integrate critical-thinking based education with skill performance. I strongly support the "brick-and-mortar" academic experience, and the benefit this brings through student/teacher conversations.
