Additional Information

I am at the forefront of conducting expert, comprehensive medicolegal neuropsychological evaluations in Utah and its neighboring regions. My background in clinical neuropsychology, coupled with extensive field experience, positions me as a leading provider of state-of-the-art expert neuropsychological assessments. From traumatic brain injury to dementia and stroke, I adeptly address an array of conditions with precision and care. I bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to the field of neuropsychology. With a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from the University of Georgia and postdoctoral fellowship training at the University of Michigan, my academic journey has been one of constant growth and dedication. Now as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Neurology at the University of Utah, I am at the forefront of cognitive and affective neuroscience research. My specialization in brain-behavior relationships in patients and athletes with traumatic brain injury has led to groundbreaking insights. With expertise in multimodal neuroimaging and neuropsychological assessments, my work is a fusion of cognitive neuroscience, clinical psychology, and neuropsychology. My dual roles as a researcher and licensed clinician allow me to bridge the gap between theory and practice. In my practice at the University of Utah, I provide comprehensive evaluations for patients and clients across various settings, including inpatient, outpatient, and medicolegal/forensic scenarios. My range of expertise encompasses traumatic brain injury, dementia, cerebrovascular events, and psychiatric disturbances.
