I am a board-certified internal medicine physician specializing in addiction medicine. After earning my medical degree from NYU SOM, I completed residency at the University of Illinois and an Addiction Medicine Fellowship at Rutgers University in Newark. As an undergraduate, I graduated magna cum laude from Cornell University College of Engineering. I am most interested in treating patients with substance use disorders with medication-assisted therapy.
