About me

About me


I am interested in cervical spine alignment (lordotic and non-lordotic subtypes) and the influence altered alignment has on balance control and advancing early osseous degenerative changes in the cervical spine.


My current research has considered the potential influence altered alignment has on degeneration in the cervical spine. Whereas my future research will investigate potential therapies aimed at reducing the likelihood of the early progression of cervical spine degenerative changes and enhancement of balance control.


As anatomical teaching is my primary academic role, future research will also begin to investigate both low and high order tests capable of determining anatomical knowledge retention in clinical programs.
