    Since 2012, I have worked on a variety of multi-disciplinary high value care research projects, with a focus on studying interventions related to provider education and EHR-based clinical decision support systems. As technology has progressed, I have examined a spectrum of interventions, ranging from static guideline-based best practice alerts to more advanced AI-based systems. Due to prior research work with code sets and based on my administrative roles, I have a particular interest in researching LLM use for clinical documentation.
