I am a board-certified nurse practitioner (NP) with special training in thoracic surgery and thoracic cancer survivorship issues. 

I began my career at MSK as a thoracic registered nurse (RN) in 1995. A graduate of Columbia University’s nurse practitioner program, I have worked at MSK as an NP since 2000. I have worked as an NP both in the hospital’s thoracic unit and in an outpatient (outside the hospital) setting. 

My patients include people who are having thoracic surgery and people in MSK’s survivorship program. I am also a researcher. My focus is thoracic cancer research, and the long-term effects of cancer treatment.

My goal is to improve the quality of life of my patients.
