My research focuses on how to develop and implement organizational structures, processes, and policies that support process improvement, teamwork, and coordination of care. In the department of psychiatry, I focus mostly on mental health topics, but I also collaborate with medical departments. I am primarily interested in working with students who have a background in organization science/management (i.e., at least one course completed that focuses on organization science or management topics). Students should also have interest in the healthcare industry, but no previous experience is needed.
I am a full-time researcher at the Dell Medical School, but I also enjoy mentoring students. I have mentored Plan II honors students, as well as other undergraduates, medical students, psychiatry residents, and post-doctoral fellows.
