Overview
I am a board-certified hematologist-oncologist. I diagnose and treat many types of cancers. I also diagnose and treat benign conditions that impact the bone marrow, blood cells, and cause concerning bleeds or thrombosis (clots). Through my volunteering, work, and personal life, I have witnessed the impact of a cancer diagnosis or complex medical illness on patients and their loved ones. I have always been drawn to helping people and their families during such critical times. I work with a diverse, multicultural patient population from North Carolina and around the world. I aim to provide empathetic, thorough care for all my patients. I was born in New York, raised in New Mexico, and my education and experiences have taken me to places like Washington, D.C., Chicago, and New York/New Jersey. Each has shaped me to be a better physician and person. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, reading, being in nature, and exploring vegan recipes and eateries.
