Postdoctoral scientist in Dr. Onohara’s laboratory at Nationwide Children’s Hospital and clinically trained cardiovascular surgeon with over ten years of experience in valvular heart disease and heart failure. My research focuses on translational cardiovascular device development for advanced ischemic heart failure and functional mitral regurgitation, with particular emphasis on minimally invasive ventricular reshaping therapy. I have hands-on experience in large-animal cardiovascular surgery, chronic swine models of ischemic cardiomyopathy, transapical device implantation, echocardiographic assessment, invasive pressure-volume loop analysis, and tissue-level evaluation of myocardial remodeling. Since joining Dr. Onohara’s laboratory in 2024, I have dedicated my work to developing and evaluating a left ventricular reshaping device in a six-month post-infarction swine model of advanced heart failure. My long-term goal is to become an independent physician-scientist, integrating clinical cardiovascular surgery with translational research to develop less invasive and more effective therapies for valvular disease and heart failure.
