Get to Know Me

I am an anatomic pathologist with a focus on gastrointestinal and hepatobiliary diseases and bone and soft tissue pathology. My academic work includes studies on inflammatory bowel disease–associated dysplasia, serrated lesions, liver pathology, and rare gastrointestinal epithelial neoplasms, aiming to improve diagnostic understanding of these diseases.

What I Do at MSK

I'm a pathologist, which is a doctor who uses a microscope to make a diagnosis from cell and tissue samples. I analyze these samples to learn the cause and effects of a health issue.
