    Collapse Overview 
    Collapse overview
    I am a pulmonary and critical care physician who also performs clinical and translational research. Our group's research focuses on the effect of alcohol and other drug consumption on the development of pneumonia and lung injury. Along with local and national collaborators, we have formed a consortium to enable translational investigations in this area, and have developed a biorepository to facilitate these investigations. Please see our consortium's website: CoPARC Other research interests of mine include junior faculty development, specifically, understanding and developing elements of the mentor-mentee relationship to promote career success. I am an Associate Program Director for the CCTSI's KL2 Mentored Career Development program that supports this role.
    Finally, I am the Medical Director of the University of Colorado's Medical ICU, where I am actively involved in multidisciplinary quality initiatives relevant to care of critically ill patients.
