After completing my psychiatry residency training, I joined SUNY Upstate/Central New York Psychiatric Center (NYS Office of Mental Health) as a forensic psychiatry fellow. My forensic interests are in the fields of suicide and violence risk assessments, psychological autopsies, motive/victimology, ethics, and public policy. I continue to hold an interest in clinical adult psychiatry.
