I am a licensed physician and surgeon in the USA. I am a current (and have been for the past 5 years) assistant/associate program director for a residency training program, a director of surgical simulation, and an assistant professor for surgery. I also have a clinical research effort, through which I have published close to 40-50 research articles, chapters, and abstracts. I have submitted several research grants to federal grant-giving and private agencies. I am called upon by colleagues routinely to help with editing, proofreading, and substantive/content editing and feedback for manuscripts, articles, and grants. I am a reviewer for several peer-reviewed journals as well as on the editorial board for 2 peer reviewed journals. I am currently mentoring 3 residents and 2 MPH students in research projects and manuscript construction. As part of my work I also create numerous didactic lectures and reports for students and residents, as well as powerpoint presentation on numerous medical topics.
