About Me

What I Do at MSK
  • Assistant Attending Physician
Get To Know Me

I am a hospitalist who cares for people who are admitted to Memorial Hospital for various medical conditions that may develop during their cancer diagnosis or treatment. These may be related to cancer and its treatment, or to other acute medical problems such as heart disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pneumonia, kidney (renal) failure, and pain.

As a former clinical investigator and research assistant, I have presented on a range of subjects, including pulmonary medicine, gastroenterology, and dermatopathology. I have also contributed to several peer-reviewed articles and abstracts in my areas of expertise.

I am a member of the American College of Physicians, the American Association of Physician Leadership, and the Society of Hospital Medicine. In 2022, I received the Excellence in Inpatient Care Award from Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center’s Department of Medicine.

My Role at MSK
