Research Interests: I am interested in clinical and sports biomechanics in overhead athletes, focusing on competitive swimming.

Equipment and Methods I use: Motion capture, electromyography (EMG), biokinetic swim ergometer

Who my research will help: My research will contribute to our understanding of competitive swimming stroke mechanics and resulting shoulder pathologies. My research will hopefully inform coaches and clinicians when incorporating shoulder injury prevention strategies into training programs and improve the coach's ability to evaluate and correct swimming stroke mechanics.

Current studies: I am currently taking classes and developing my thesis proposal.
