Clinical Interests
I treat patients with lung cancer, mesothelioma, thymic epithelial tumors, and other rarer thoracic malignancies. I'm happy to see patients at any point in their cancer journeys.

Care Philosophy
I want to be a reliable guide for my patients on their cancer journeys. I strive to understand each patient's priorities and propose treatments that align with their goals. I aim to connect every patient to the best treatment for them, whether it's an approved therapy or a trial agent. I strongly believe that patients with lung cancer and other thoracic malignancies are best cared for by a multidisciplinary team and value the contributions of all of our team members.
