  mentoring_philosophy: 'My primary goal as a mentor is to provide a foundation and structure for students to develop into independent researchers. The cornerstone of a successful mentor-mentee relationship is to develop a strategy that aligns the research interests, career goals, and innovative ideas of each mentee with my goals as a researcher. Each mentee is different and some may come from diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds. Therefore, aligning expectations must be done on an individual basis to account for these factors. I prefer to be hands off and allow each student to make mistakes, but also to learn from mistakes. To become a good scientist you must focus on the details and be able to recognize when an observation is an error vs. an actual finding.'

  overall_research_project_description: 'My research focuses on cardiovascular physiology and the influence of aging and lifestyle on the development of cardiovascular disease. There are a number of age- and lifestyle-related changes in the structural and functional properties of arteries that result in impaired vascular function, elevated blood pressure, and contribute to cardiovascular disease risk. I study the effects of intervention, particularly exercise and dietary, on restoration of vascular function and reductions in blood pressure. Additionally, I study physiological and molecular mechanisms responsible for changes in vascular function and blood pressure with aging and following intervention, as well as in Down syndrome. We have a novel mouse model of Down syndrome, TcMAC21 mouse, to address these research questions. '
