Get to Know Me

I am a board-certified hematologist-oncologist with a special focus on lymphoma, shaped by advanced training at leading academic institutions. At Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK), I work with experts across teams who are devoted to advancing therapies and delivering outstanding, patient care.

I see patients at the David H. Koch Center for Cancer Care at MSK and MSK Westchester. I create personalized treatment plans for people with lymphoma and use the latest therapies including cellular therapy, immunotherapy, and targeted therapy.

Working closely with experts across specialties, I aim to make sure every person receives the most effective and comprehensive care. It is my privilege to guide patients and their families with expertise, compassion, and unwavering commitment at every step of their journey.

What I Do at MSK

I'm a lymphoma specialist, which is a doctor with special training in diagnosing and treating lymphoma (lim-FOH-muh). This cancer starts in the cells of the immune system.

A cellular therapy specialist is a doctor with special training in using cell therapies to treat health conditions such as cancer. Therapies can include chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy.
