I was born and raised in northern New Jersey and am a graduate of New York University. I obtained my medical degree at Rutgers University New Jersey Medical School in Newark and completed my residency at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center at Parkland and Clements Hospitals. I then came back to the tri-state area to complete a general cardiology fellowship at Mount Sinai Hospital, where I developed an interest in advanced cardiovascular Imaging. Currently, when I am not reading cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, I am doing my best to increase my functional threshold power on my Peloton bike.

Education: Penn State College of Medicine (MD), Yale School of Public Health (MPH)
Residency: Cambridge Health Alliance
I am a swimmer, cellist, and East Coast transplant from California interested in cardiovascular outcomes research with an interest in imaging and non-invasive cardiology. In my spare time, I enjoy being outdoors (hiking, running, climbing), trying out different pizza places, and watching sports. I am excited to join the cardiology team at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center to participate in cutting-edge research in cardio-oncology and to care for patients with cancer and cardiovascular conditions.
