Research Interests

My research interest centers around peripheral vascular function, with a focus on understanding how various therapeutic strategies can enhance vascular health. I am particularly interested in the unique benefits of small muscle mass exercise, such as single-leg cycling, and how these interventions can improve vascular outcomes. Currently, my primary goal is to better understand how emerging therapeutic approaches can improve vascular health across diverse populations.
