I have been at the Cancer Institute of New Jersey since 2006, after completing medical school and radiation oncology residency at Yale.

We discuss our patients at head and neck tumor board, and constantly communicate with each other during treatment. To improve the care of future head and neck patients, I have written and am currently enrolling to a head and neck cancer trial designed to help personalize chemotherapy for patients receiving chemotherapy and radiation. Education is another passion of mine, and I have enjoyed teaching head and neck radiation courses to radiation oncologists and radiologists at RSNA (Radiological society of North America) for a number of years.
