Teaching Responsibilities
Craniofacial fellowship: I served as mentor to 1 craniofacial fellow each year as I teach them
complex pediatric and adult craniofacial surgery, including cleft, craniosynostosis and facial
fractures management. Recent fellows include:
2014-2015
Dr. Travis Shawn Greathouse
2015-2016
Dr. Sarah Fernandez
Plastic Surgery residents (IU): I am involved in frequent didactic sessions, hands on teaching in
the clinic and operating room, and one-on-one sessions for feedback about resident performance.
I also teach residents at the Division of Plastic Surgery weekly conference.
Medical Students (IU): I am involved in direct teaching with medical students at the clinic and
operating room, and one-on-one sessions for feedback about resident performance. I also teach
medical students at the Division of Plastic Surgery weekly conference.
