EDUCATION

Masters of Physician Assistant Studies January 2014 - Aug 2017
Master’s Thesis: Board review and pathognomonics app: In collaboration with Clarkson University staff, the project is to create a phone app that uses key words or “pathogonomics” to prepare physician assistant graduate students for the licensing exam. The app will focus on specific topics without large amounts of jargon to trigger a student to recall the necessary information allowing them to cover much more material in a short amount of time. The thesis is planned to be submitted for publication and data was used to determine how beneficial PA students preparing for the boards found it.
