About Me

I am a physician scientist who specializes in lymphoma. I obtained a BA in Integrative Biology at University of California, Berkeley where I received the Highest Distinction in General Scholarship, followed by an MD degree at University of California, Davis, School of Medicine. I received my residency training at University of Washington and completed a fellowship in Hematology and Oncology at University of Washington and Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center. I am the recipient of Lymphoma Research Foundation Fellowship Award and American Cancer Society Mentored Research Scholar Grant (ACS-MRSG) Award In Tumor Biology and Genomics. I was also elected as the HemOnc Today’s NextGen Innovator. My research is currently being supported by Leukemia Lymphoma Society Translational Research Program (LLS-TRP), Follicular Lymphoma Foundation, and Institute for Follicular Lymphoma Innovation.

I am currently the Vice Chair for Research in the Department of Hematologic Oncology and Blood Disorders and also Co-Leader for the Experimental Therapeutics and Applied Sciences (ETAS) Program at Wake Forest Baptist Comprehensive Cancer Center. I've been the principal investigator of numerous clinical trials and translational research projects, and as a medical oncologist, I am dedicated to providing the best care to my patients.
