About

I am a pathology resident physician at UC Irvine with interests in dermatopathology, surgical pathology, digital pathology, laboratory management, and epidemiology. My academic background includes research in cancer epidemiology and diagnostic pathology. I have contributed to peer-reviewed publications and recent scholarly work involving surgical pathology, dermatopathology, physician equity, and population-based research. My work reflects a broader interest in how pathology can improve diagnostic accuracy, advance equitable care, and better represent diverse patient populations in research and clinical practice. My long-term interests include diagnostic pathology, dermatopathology, AI-enabled pathology workflows, translational research, laboratory operations, and data-driven approaches to improving patient care. I am especially interested in opportunities involving dermatopathology, surgical pathology, digital and computational pathology, health inequities, epidemiology, and academic medicine.
