I am a clinical social worker who cares for adolescents and young adults with cancer at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK). I support patients through the Lisa and Scott Stuart Center for Adolescent and Young Adult (AYA) Cancers. This clinical and research center was founded to meet the specific needs and concerns of people ages 15 to 39.

I offer supportive counseling to help people in this age group cope with diagnosis and treatment. I am passionate about supporting my patients to work through their diagnosis and the effect that it can have on many parts of their life, including their:

  • Relationships
  • Identity
  • Career

I joined MSK in 2020 and served as the Senior Program Coordinator of the AYA Program before joining the Department of Social Work. Prior to MSK, I worked at a non-profit supporting high school students with college and career readiness.

Outside of work, I enjoy traveling to new places, Broadway musicals, and rooting for the New York Mets and New York Knicks.
