Where I practice
About me
After growing up in the Midwest, I attended The Ohio State University, where I earned both my bachelor’s degree in biology and my medical degree. I completed my Internal Medicine residency at the University of Colorado, followed by fellowship training in Hematology and Oncology at the University of Michigan.
As a board-certified Medical Oncologist, I specialize in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of cancer, providing comprehensive and compassionate care tailored to each individual. I am committed to fostering trust and understanding with my patients and their families, ensuring that every care plan is guided by evidence, empathy, and collaboration.
About my practice
In my practice, I believe in the importance of a strong and trusting doctor - patient relationship. I enjoy meeting people from all walks of life and consider it an honor to support them through some of the most challenging times in their lives. I hold sacred the tenets of the Hippocratic Oath and strive, as Maimonides taught, to practice medicine with empathy, humility, and wisdom.
Cancer Subspecialty Focus
My areas of clinical focus include gastrointestinal, bladder, prostate, kidney, hematologic, neuroendocrine, brain, breast, lung, head and neck malignancies, as well as benign hematology.
Collaboration on Multidisciplinary Teams
I work closely with multidisciplinary teams composed of experts in medical oncology, hematology, radiation oncology, surgery, pathology, and other specialties. These collaborations allow us to design personalized, evidence-based treatment plans that reflect national best practices and ensure coordinated, high-quality care throughout every stage of diagnosis and treatment.
Research & Clinical Trials Involvement
I participate in several National Cancer Institute–supported research networks, including the SWOG Cancer Research Network, National Surgical Adjuvant Breast and Bowel Project (NSABP), Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology, and NRG Oncology. As a sub-investigator on multiple clinical trials, I am dedicated to advancing cancer care through innovative research and improving patient access to promising new therapies within Kaiser Permanente.
How I thrive
My family and I share a great love for the outdoors. We enjoy hiking and camping in the mountains, traveling, and exploring cuisines from around the world. In my free time, I enjoy reading, cycling, and spending time with our extended family across the globe.
