I graduated from New York University School of Medicine and completed my neurology residency at University of Washington in Seattle, WA. I then pursued a neuro-oncology fellowship at the Harvard University/Massachusetts General Hospital/Dana Farber Cancer Institute program. While there, I spent 2 years in the Steele Lab under the direction of Dr. Rakesh Jain, PhD via a K12 award. I started working at Maine Medical Center in 2012, developing the neuro-oncology program there in order to serve northern New England. Besides serving as the PI for a number of trials to serve our brain tumor patients, I have been focusing on improving neuro oncology care in the community and trying to address disparities in neuro oncology care.
