I am a board-certified academic dermatologist— a physician who specializes in the diagnosis and management of skin disease. In addition to seeing patients, I analyze skin samples microscopically to determine skin diagnoses in my role as Director of Dermatopathology. My research and clinical interests include melanoma, cutaneous lymphoma, nonmelanoma skin cancer, psoriasis, and eczema. I am also interested in multidisciplinary clinical efforts to treat dermatological diseases that have accompanying serious systemic ramifications.
I obtained a Bachelor of Science in biochemistry as well as a Master of Science in chemistry at the University of Pennsylvania. After finishing medical school at the Yale School of Medicine, I pursued dermatology residency at the University of Miami. Following my training in Miami, I completed a dermatopathology fellowship through the Harvard Combined Dermatopathology Fellowship Program, where I received training at Massachusetts General Hospital, Brigham and Women’s Hospital, and Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital.
Outside of work, I enjoy hiking, playing tennis, and traveling.
“I would like to recognize the nurse I had, M. She was an absolute gem. I was anxious about the appointment and self conscious about my look after the procedure on my face. She went above and beyond to calm my nerves, and offered solutions to help me feel more comfortable, like a mask after the procedure. She made sure I was completely comfortable with every step before the procedure and constantly asked how I was feeling. She was funny and kind and I absolutely would love for her to know how much she was appreciated. Thank you so much for all you do for all of your patients.”
