Personal Statement

As a member of the Division of Hematopathology at ÈÕ±¾avÉ«ÇéƬ/NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, my clinical practice focuses on the diagnosis of leukemias, lymphomas and other hematologic disorders. I work closely with colleagues in clinical hematology and oncology to ensure that our patients receive the most accurate diagnoses to best guide subsequent care. Given the nature of our work in hematopathology, there is a tremendous opportunity to improve our understanding of disease biology, identify markers for prognostication, and new avenues for therapeutic intervention. In addition to my clinical and research interests, I am also passionate about pathology education, and trainee mentorship.
