Get to Know Me

I am a board-certified dermatologist who focuses on dermatologic oncology, which is the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of skin cancers. Additionally, I provide supportive care for patients with skin, hair, and nail conditions associated with treatment of other cancers.

I practice general dermatology and perform surgical procedures for skin cancer. I have a special interest in dermoscopy and skin cancer screening. Dermoscopy involves using a small device with a magnifying glass and light, called a dermatoscope, to better see features of cancerous skin lesions. I have also completed a research fellowship dedicated to using non-invasive methods to diagnose skin cancers.

I am proud to be a part of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, which offers world-class cancer care, and look forward to offering that same level of care to patients at MSK Basking Ridge in my home state of New Jersey.

In my free time, I enjoy exploring nature, traveling, trying new recipes, and spending time with family.

What I Do at MSK

I'm a dermatologist, which is a doctor with special training in skin, hair, and nails.
