In addition to my research I am deeply committed to career development and training, with particular focus on developing opportunities for underrepresented students in the biomedical sciences (1T32GM139807 and Komen GTDR, both MPI at Wayne State University). I have also served in various roles focused on the enhancement of diversity, equity and inclusion efforts at the department, school and university levels. Involvement in these activities allows me to collaborate across departments and to implement programs critical to support an environment of inclusive excellence.
