About

I am a physician-scientist trained in Anatomic Pathology, dermatopathology, and molecular genetic pathology. My doctoral research focused on improving our understanding of the features, drivers, and heterogeneity of melanoma brain metastases to improve our ability to treat this deadly disease complication. My current research focuses on understanding the molecular pathology of aggressive cancers to improve their diagnosis and treatment.
