Research Interests
My research examines the clinical outcomes of orthoses on activities of daily living and human locomotion with the goal of improving effectiveness of orthotic interventions for people with physical impairments.
I am a certified and licensed orthotist. I am Director, Department of Orthotics/Prosthetics at the Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago (formerly Children’s Memorial Hospital); and Assistant Professor, Feinberg School of Medicine, Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation. In addition to clinical work, I supervise and train clinical residents; and instruct graduate students in the Master’s of Prosthetics and Orthotics degree program at the Northwestern University Prosthetics-Orthotics Center (NUPOC).
My clinical interest is pediatric and adult orthotic treatment of the spine and upper and lower limbs, with special attention to therapeutic interventions for neuromuscular scoliosis and cerebral palsy.
