Overview
My research focus is primarily centered on heart failure and cardiovascular medicine outcomes, with particular emphasis on improving risk stratification, clinical decision-making, and patient-centered outcomes. An integral component of this work includes the study and implementation of management strategies for lifestyle modification—such as smoking cessation, diet, physical activity, and adherence behaviors—to improve cardiovascular outcomes and support sustainable, long-term disease management across the heart failure spectrum.
