Education Work Portfolio
I am a Physician Educator
In addition to being a surgeon, I am currently an Assistant Professor of Surgery and I love teaching and medical education. Education is a passion of mine as it is something that can make the world a better place, if all can have access to it. I have experience in curriculum development and thoroughly enjoy it. I pride myself on my willingness to adapt and learn new skills, particularly in technology, and this is evident in all my endeavors. With the world changing, I strongly believe that medicine and education will adapt to technology. Below is my educational portfolio.
I was a teacher for Medmastery, an online learning company that helps healthcare professionals learn practical clinical skills. I have developed and taught two courses and a workshop, Essentials of The Abdominal Exam, A Surgeon's Approach to Acute Abdominal Pain: The Essentials, and A Surgeon's Approach to Acute Abdominal Pain Workshop. This is a great platform for all clinicians!
I created an online educational platform called The Due Influence. It is a place for students of all ages to learn about different careers, network, and gain mentorship and professional development opportunities. It is a great resource, especially for high school and college students to help set them up for a successful career. I created and developed the website, created and edited the videos and content.
I created and developed a surgical clerkship curriculum for 3rd and 4th year medical students on their surgery rotation at my training institution. It was adopted by the department of Graduate Medical Education (GME) and became the official curriculum of all medical students rotating through surgery at my training institution.
