Stanford, California, United States
Internal Medicine resident at Stanford interested in cardiology, cardio-oncology, and cardiovascular immunology. --- I am currently a PGY-3 Internal Medicine Resident at Stanford Health Care, where I am pursuing a career in academic cardiology. I am particularly interested in how immune mechanisms drive cardiovascular disease, including immune checkpoint inhibitor myocarditis and cancer therapy-related cardiovascular toxicity. I completed my medical degree at the University of Cambridge, graduating with First Class Honours and Distinction. During medical school, I served as President of the Cambridge University Cardiology Society and Scientific Society, as well as Chair of the Cambridge World Health Organization Simulation. These experiences shaped my early interests in cardiovascular medicine, scientific leadership, and clinically meaningful research. My research has focused on cardio-oncology, immuno-oncology, and molecular medicine, including work on immune checkpoint inhibitor myocarditis, cancer immunology, and translational therapeutics. I have worked on projects with projects at Stanford, UCSF, Karolinska Institutet as an Amgen Scholar, and Singapore’s A*STAR. I have co-authored multiple peer-reviewed publications and presented work at ACC, ESC, and ESSO. I hope to build a career as a physician-scientist working at the interface of cardiology and immunology, using clinical insight, molecular tools, and translational research to improve outcomes for patients with cardiovascular disease.
I am the President of the Cambridge Surgical Society Committee, the largest and longest-running surgical society in the School of Clinical Medicine.
I am supervising 1st year Medical and Veterinary students in Biochemistry (Molecules in Medical Science). These are small-group tutorial sessions once a week, for me to discuss topics in depth and to address any questions my students have from their course.
In the summer of 2022, I joined a medical expedition in the mountain ranges of the Himalayas, in Pangi Valley. We delivered mobile clinics to the underserved villages in the remote interior regions where access to healthcare facilities is limited. I was part of a team with 18 medical students and 4 physicians in this 3-week medical expedition.
