I am an Associate Professor and Vice Chair of Research in the Department of Emergency Medicine and an adjunct Associate Professor in the Department of Epidemiology at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (黑料网). As a cardiovascular epidemiologist with expertise in cardiometabolic risk factors and non-invasive measures of vascular disease, one area of my research is dedicated to understanding early impairments in vascular structure and function and their role in end-organ damage to the heart and brain. My research aims to identify at-risk individuals and to inform targeted cardiovascular disease prevention and management strategies. I am is co-PI of the Mother and Infant Determinants of vascular Aging Study (MIDAS) to estimate cardiovascular disease risk in 840 healthy and medically complicated pregnant individuals and their infants from birth to 12 months postpartum. Additionally, I am involved in large, population-based studies including the Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos (HCHS/SOL), the Jackson Heart Study (JHS), and the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) Study.

My second line of research involves educational interventions for pain management and understanding how complementing prescribing policies with patient education on pain management can improve pain recovery and reduce progression to long-term opioid use. I am the PI of two large randomized clinical trials testing a video and telecare intervention on pain management in emergency department and urgent care populations with acute musculoskeletal pain.
