Research Experience
Doctoral Applied Research Project
The Ability of Vestibular and Oculomotor Screenings to Predict Recovery in Patients Following Concussion: A Systematic Review of the Literature
May 2021 - March 2023
My research project was a systematic review that examined the ability of vestibular and oculomotor screening tools to predict recovery in patients following concussion. Our findings were that there may be a relationship, but due to the varying methods of the studies, we couldn't conduct a meta-analysis to give a definitive answer.
Masters Thesis
The Impact of Delayed Reporting and Delayed Presentation to Concussion Specialty Clinics of Concussion on Recovery Time
May 2019-May 2020
My master's thesis encompassed a systematic review on delayed reporting of concussion which found that patients who delayed reporting a concussion had on average a 5.4 day longer recovery than persons who immediately reported a suspected concussion.
Senior Thesis

Fall 2017
Conducted a retrospective records analysis to determine if symptom severity predicted performance on the Standardized Assessment of Concussion (SAC) in patients following concussion.

I have written a handful of research article summaries for sports medicine research with the swift editorial hand of Dr. Driban. I am eagerly anticipating the return of regular emails from Dr. Driban as the team directs the next evolution of the website.
Personal Projects
ATFreeCEU.com
A website dedicated to quickly accessing free continuing education courses for athletic trainers. This project grew out of frustration in December 2019 around the sentiment from classmates and other athletic trainers that maintaining our certification was cost-prohibitive. Additionally, I found that the BOC search tool was filled with providers who do not adequately complete their postings which clog the system with courses that obscure that they have fees.
