About
Biography
The Ohio State Wexner Medical Center is a center of academic excellence, and I was drawn by the opportunity to participate in groundbreaking clinical research. I aim to help improve the management of high-risk cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma and rare skin tumors and develop new reconstructive techniques. I have received funding from the Dermatology Foundation and the AAD Cochrane Scholar Program, and my research has been widely published in peer-reviewed journals.
I am also passionate about medical education. My role includes teaching and mentoring medical students, dermatology residents, and Mohs surgery fellows.
