I have been an active member of surgical teams at various institutions including serving as an Assistant Professor of Surgery at the University of Arizona, where I was actively involved in starting a new intestinal transplant program. I returned to Georgetown University Hospital and its Transplant Institute, where I was the founding director of an autologous islet cell transplant program and was promoted to Associate Professor of Surgery. I moved to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2016 as Surgical Director of liver transplantation, initiating a new Chronic Pancreatitis and autologous islet cell transplant program which I currently direct. The program emphasis is on recurrent and chronic pancreatitis as well as islet cell auto-transplantation, along with other complex pancreatic disorders including cystic diseases and intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN).
