Get to Know Me

I am a physician who specializes in the development and interpretation of DNA-based tests performed on solid tumors and hematologic malignancies. In my research, I focus on using genomic and image-based data to better understand the tumor and the tumor microenvironment, with the goal of developing novel diagnostic tests. I am board certified in anatomic pathology, clinical pathology, and molecular genetic pathology.

What I Do at MSK

I'm a pathologist, which is a doctor who uses a microscope to make a diagnosis from cell and tissue samples. I analyze these samples to learn the cause and effects of a health issue.
