How and when did you first get involved with JBJS?

I started reviewing for JBJS about five years ago when I was completing residency.

What is your favorite tip or tool for maintaining a healthy work/life balance?

Include goals for your personal life and items outside of work that are important to you in your 5- and 10-year plans. Reassess your progress frequently and adjust how you’re spending your time accordingly!

What has been the highlight of your career so far?

The OTA supported my attendance at the AAOS/OREF/ORS Clinician Scholar Career Development Program in 2019. This was an opportunity that highlighted the significance of high quality, meaningful research in orthopaedic surgery from faculty that have had a major impact on our field.

Aside from orthopaedic manuscripts, what have you been reading lately?

I recently picked up one of my favorite novels to re-read: The Alchemist.
