Get to Know Me

I am a pediatric oncologist at MSK Kids who specializes in the treatment of neuroblastoma. I see patients at Memorial Hospital in New York City.

Pediatric oncology holds a special place in my heart because children deserve compassionate and cutting-edge care. My goal is to support each child and their family throughout every step of their treatment journey.

My focus on neuroblastoma allows me to apply my strong research background to help patients with this aggressive disease live longer, healthier lives. At MSK Kids, we have one of the largest neuroblastoma teams in the world. Together, we ensure that each child receives the most advanced and individualized care in the way that best meets their needs.

I am especially interested in identifying and learning about neuroblastomas that are resistant to conventional treatments. My colleagues and I are trying to understand why these cancers keep growing despite treatment, and we explore innovative ways to treat them. I work closely with laboratory scientists and physician-scientists.

Our goal is to bring laboratory discoveries to the clinic where they can help patients. Together, we are working to improve outcomes and minimize the side effects of treatment, giving each child the best chance for a brighter future.
