Get to Know Me

I am a medical oncologist with expertise in early-phase clinical trials.

Together with an exceptional team, I work to bring cutting-edge therapies to the clinic. My goal is to offer patients the highest level of care by tailoring treatment options to patients’ individual needs and the unique characteristics of their tumors.

I am dedicated to supporting patients in navigating their cancer care, and I strive to offer thoughtful, individualized care plans. I am also committed to helping my patients understand instances in which scientific breakthroughs have created opportunities for clinical trial participation.

My research leverages genetic information about tumors to both optimize existing treatments and to bring new and innovative drugs to the clinic. I consider it a privilege every day to translate scientific discoveries into new therapies that are designed to transform the fight against cancer.

What I Do at MSK

I'm an early drug development specialist, which is a scientist who tests new drugs to treat cancer. I have special training in research studies, also known as clinical trials.
