About

Biography

My research goals include developing optimal approaches for treating cancer patients with cardiovascular toxicities secondary to their cancer therapy. I aim to better understand why these conditions develop by evaluating clinical outcomes and conducting clinical trials. My interests also include evaluating the molecular, cellular, and genetic mechanisms underlying various forms of cancer treatment-related cardiotoxicities.

I have authored multiple publications in peer-reviewed journals and have presented my research at national meetings. My research has contributed to advancing the field of breast cancer, cardiovascular medicine, and the intersection of cancer and cardiovascular disease. I am a member of the American College of Cardiology, American Heart Association, and International Cardio-Oncology Society.
