Get to Know Me

I’m a hematologist-oncologist with a special focus on lymphoma, a type of blood cancer.

At Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK), I care for people with lymphoma who may need urgent or medically complex care during their treatment. This may include helping with a diagnosis or starting or following up during treatments. 

I also care for patients who need to be hospitalized and manage medical conditions that may arise during lymphoma treatment. I see patients at Memorial Hospital, MSK’s main hospital in New York City.

I work closely with lymphoma and other experts across MSK to give you not only the latest but also the most complete and personal care. I consider the whole person when making treatment decisions, including each person’s overall health, needs, priorities, and wishes. It is a privilege to care for patients during some of the most challenging moments of their lives.

My research focuses on both aggressive and indolent B-cell lymphomas and is closely connected to my clinical work. I have a special interest in questions that arise directly from caring for patients with lymphoma. This includes looking into how we can use artificial intelligence for better lymphoma care. My goal is to improve our understanding and treatment of these diseases.

What I Do at MSK

I'm a lymphoma specialist, which is a doctor with special training in diagnosing and treating lymphoma (lim-FOH-muh). This cancer starts in the cells of the immune system.
