Get to Know Me

I am a medical oncologist who focuses on the treatment of gynecologic cancers. These include:

I see patients at Memorial Sloan Kettering Monmouth in New Jersey.

My clinical and research efforts are focused on bringing the latest therapies to patients through early-phase clinical trials, especially for women with cancer or disease that is difficult to treat or which keeps returning even after treatment.

My interest in oncology (cancer care) began during college, when a close family member was diagnosed with cancer. This experience—and the dedication of the care team—left a lasting impression on me.

My clinical and research interests center on designing and conducting clinical trials that bring promising new therapies to patients—particularly those with rare or treatment-resistant disease. In addition to being part of the Gynecologic Medical Oncology Service, I am also part of the Early Drug Development Service where I treat patients who are part of clinical trials.

My approach to care is deeply rooted in compassion and partnership. I recognize that a cancer diagnosis adds a significant emotional and logistical burden to my patients’ already demanding lives. My goal is to help each person feel supported and empowered throughout their treatment journey. I aim to offer clear, thoughtful guidance while designing treatment plans that align with each person’s goals, needs, and values.

I work with experts across teams to deliver the latest comprehensive care, while also ensuring access to clinical trials that may expand treatment options. I want my patients to know that I am their advocate and that they are not facing this experience alone.
