About

Since graduating from the University of Alberta Adult Rheumatology training program in 2016, my clinical focus has been on musculoskeletal conditions in patients with cancer. I am the medical director of the Northern Alberta Osteoporosis Program (www.NAOP.ca), which includes a team of 5 physicians, PTs, OTs, dietitians, pharmacists, patient navigators and nurses. Through this program, we have set-up formalized referral pathways for various at-risk groups. I am also the Clinical Lead of the Canadian Rheumatology Research Group in Immuno-Oncology (www.CanRIO.ca). With the skills obtained through my MPH in Epidemiology from the Harvard Chan School of Public Health, my research focuses on the intersections of bone and joint diseases, cancer and artificial intelligence.
