About Me

What I Do at MSK
  • Director, Clinical Proteomics
Get To Know Me

I am a bioanalytical chemist who specializes in mass spectrometric analysis of peptides and proteins. My primary clinical responsibility is the interpretation of mass spectrometry-based proteomics clinical assay results. As a laboratory director, I am responsible for the management and oversight of the Clinical Proteomics Laboratory. This includes the development and validation of novel assays for the identification and quantitation of proteins and peptides that will facilitate precision medicine. I work closely with pathologists and oncologists to identify unmet clinical diagnostic and prognostic needs.
