Many patients are very anxious when they first come into the clinic. To alleviate their worries, I meet with them to personally discuss findings, explain the rationale behind my care recommendations, and address their questions and concerns. It is important to me that my patients not only feel supported and heard throughout their visit, but also walk away feeling like they have another advocate on their side. I truly care about my patients; I feel honored to work with and for each of them to provide the best care possible.

During my premedical studies, I attended a postbaccalaureate program at City College of New York, where I joined its inaugural summer clinical oncology experience (SCORE) program. There, I was introduced to the field of radiology and breast imaging by my mentor, Dr. Laura Liberman, who was the head of the program at the time and practiced as a radiologist at MSK. Although I considered different avenues in medicine during my medical school training, I enjoy the diagnostic aspect of radiology and the opportunity it gives me to interact with patients and different healthcare providers alike.

I am very passionate about supporting other radiologists, particularly women who are underrepresented in the field. To that end, I have held several roles to encourage mentorship at the local and national level and am part of the Society of Breast Imaging’s Mentorship Committee.  Currently, I am in my fourth year as a co-leader of the Young Residents and Fellows Program at the Radiology Leadership Institute’s annual summit, offered through the American College of Radiology.

Outside of the clinic, I love spending time with my husband and two daughters, traveling all over the country and beyond, exploring local foods and cultures, and riding horses. We don’t currently have any pets, but I suspect there will be a canine addition to our household in the near future.
