Get to Know Me

I am a hematologist-oncologist who specializes in caring for people with acute and chronic leukemias, myelodysplastic syndromes, and myeloproliferative neoplasms. I am dedicated to providing my patients with the best care tailored to their unique situation. To do this, we work together to develop a personalized treatment plan that takes into account their needs as well as their family’s.

I am also an active clinical researcher who develops new and innovative approaches to treating acute myeloid leukemia (AML).

I am the principal investigator on a wide variety of clinical trials for people with AML. I am working to develop new therapies — such as small molecule inhibitors — that can more precisely and effectively target AML. My goal as a doctor and researcher is to help people with AML and other blood cancers have the best possible outcomes.

What I Do at MSK

I’m a leukemia specialist, which is a doctor with special training in diagnosing and treating leukemia (loo-KEE-mee-uh). This cancer starts in tissue that forms blood, such as bone marrow.

I'm an early drug development specialist, which is a scientist who tests new drugs to treat cancer. I have special training in research studies, also known as clinical trials.
