Principal engineer for the Orthopaedic Research Laboratory. Primary focus was innovation in pediatric scoliosis treatment.▪Primary engineering resource on multidisciplinary team which validated the guided growth principle for treatment of Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis. Intrinsic to study from prototype construction and histological measurement, to data analysis and final dissemination of results to the scientific community.This approach has potential to save $25k/patient, while reducing pain and suffering.▪ Designed, constructed and performed initial trials on fixture for cyclic fatigue testing of explanted spine growing rods. Cost reduction of $50k/system would allow for multiple fixtures and save months of testing time.▪ Co-author on 3 year, $600,000, NIH R01 grant with goal of improving outcomes for early onset scoliosis patients. Study will significantly extend FDA investigation on growing rod instrumentation failures.▪ In collaboration with senior spine surgeon, developed test methodology and led experimental investigation evaluating influence of spine instrumentation transition zone stiffness on proximal junctional kyphosis. Co-author on frequently cited paper in prominent medical journal.▪Co-developed, tested, and fabricated MEMS-based sensors for in vivo evaluation of disc annulus pressure in a porcine scoliosis model. Sensors successfully deployed for 8-week trials of an experimental spine growth modulation implant. Also responsible for animal handling and telemetric data collection.▪Disseminated scientific results as co-author in over 20 articles in leading orthopaedic journals, and over 40 conference proceedings.▪Mentored over 25 personnel in clinician driven, orthopaedic research experiences. Group includes spine fellows, orthopaedic residents, medical students, Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship students (SURF), and Women in Science and Engineering (WISE) students.

Principal engineer on core team which developed a transintegumental electrical transformer. System was capable of delivering sufficient energy to power an implantable left ventricular assist device, with >95% transfer efficiency.
