University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, Colorado
As an assistant professor in both the Department of Emergency Medicine and the Department of Anesthesiology, I have a unique role in academic medicine at the University of Colorado. My current position involves attending in the emergency department, cardiothoracic intensive care unit (CTICU) and on the multidisciplinary critical care consult team with the medical ICU. This has given me a very broad perspective on the workings of critical care within a major academic institution and also allows me to work with an incredibly wide breadth of learners.
From 2015-2018, I trained in emergency medicine in Washington DC, working at both the safety net hospital of MedStar Washington Hospital Center and the academic tertiary referral hospital, Georgetown University Hospital. After residency, from 2018 - 2020, I completed critical care medicine fellowship at the University of Maryland and R. Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center in Baltimore, through the division of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine. This was an incredibly exciting and challenging time to be a critical care fellow and subsequently a new attending. While my research focus as a fellow was in extracorporeal membrane oxygenation as well as obstetric critical care, the latter part of my fellowship and early portion of my career as a new attending were – like virtually all physicians in my field – spent juggling the demands of the COVID-19 pandemic. I attended in the medical COVID “surge” ICU, in addition to being a part of a of a small, highly trained group of intensivists caring for COVID patients requiring ECMO as an extension of the CTICU. During this time, I also continued with my responsibilities attending in the ever-busy emergency department.
