I am a genetic counselor who has a specialized research interest in hereditary predispositions to gastrointestinal cancers, including colorectal cancer and polyposis, gastric (stomach) cancer, and pancreatic cancer. I am also involved with clinical research focusing on inherited changes found through targeted tumor and normal DNA sequencing through MSK-IMPACTTM. In addition to my clinical and research roles, I focus on optimizing processes within the Clinical Genetics Service.
