ABOUT
Medicine has always been the foundation. Leadership is where the work is going.
I am a board-certified Family Medicine physician with more than 14 years of experience in clinical care and a career that has increasingly expanded beyond the traditional exam room.
Since beginning clinical practice in 2012, I have worked across primary care, telemedicine, medical direction, physician supervision, healthcare operations, and health education. These experiences have given me a perspective that extends beyond individual patient encounters to the systems, teams, and decisions that shape how healthcare is delivered.
Over time, I became increasingly interested in the space between clinical medicine and organizational leadership: how healthcare systems operate, how physicians can contribute to better decision-making, and how thoughtful strategy can create better experiences for both patients and clinicians.
Today, my work sits at that intersection—bringing a clinician’s perspective to healthcare leadership, strategy, education, and innovation.
THE JOURNEY
From clinical medicine to healthcare leadership
01
Clinical Foundation
Medicine was the starting point.
After earning my medical degree from Rutgers New Jersey Medical School, I completed my Family Medicine and Social Medicine residency at Montefiore Medical Center and Albert Einstein College of Medicine.
I began practicing medicine in 2012, building a foundation in comprehensive patient care and developing the clinical judgment that continues to shape how I approach healthcare today.
Clinical medicine taught me to listen carefully, make decisions with incomplete information, communicate clearly, and never lose sight of the person behind the problem.
Those lessons have remained constant even as my work has evolved.
02
Expanding Beyond the Exam Room
As my career progressed, I began taking on roles that extended beyond direct patient care.
I have worked in telemedicine, medical direction, physician supervision, regulated healthcare operations, and health education. Each role exposed me to a different part of the healthcare ecosystem—and to the reality that patient outcomes are influenced by much more than what happens during a clinical encounter.
I began seeing healthcare from multiple perspectives: as a physician caring for patients, as a leader supporting other clinicians, and as someone responsible for understanding the operational structures behind healthcare delivery.
That broader perspective changed the questions I wanted to ask.
How do we build healthcare systems that work better for patients and clinicians? How can physicians contribute beyond individual patient encounters? And how can clinical insight inform better organizational decisions?

Building Toward What’s Next
My career is continuing to evolve.
I am pursuing an MBA at the University of the People to complement my clinical training with a deeper understanding of business, strategy, and organizational leadership.
My focus is increasingly centered on the intersection of medicine and the larger systems in which healthcare operates—with particular interests in healthcare strategy, metabolic health, physician education, and digital health.
I am not leaving medicine behind.
I am expanding what it means to practice medicine by bringing clinical experience into the conversations, decisions, and strategies that shape healthcare at a broader level.
WHAT I BRING
A perspective shaped by both medicine and systems.
Clinical Expertise
More than a decade of clinical practice has given me a practical understanding of patient care, clinical decision-making, and the realities physicians and patients navigate every day.
Healthcare Operations
My work across medical direction, telemedicine, physician supervision, and regulated healthcare environments has given me experience with the operational side of healthcare delivery.
Physician Leadership
I understand healthcare from the perspective of both the clinician delivering care and the leader responsible for supporting teams, maintaining standards, and navigating complex healthcare environments.
Strategic Perspective
My clinical background, leadership experience, and ongoing MBA education allow me to approach healthcare challenges from both sides of the equation: what makes sense clinically and what makes sense organizationally.
EDUCATION & CREDENTIALS
Built on a foundation of clinical training and lifelong learning.

CURRENT FOCUS
Where my work is headed
Healthcare Leadership & Strategy
Exploring how clinical insight, operational experience, and business strategy can come together to improve healthcare organizations and delivery.
Metabolic Health
Bringing a physician’s perspective to the growing conversation around metabolic health, prevention, and sustainable approaches to improving health outcomes.
Physician Education
Supporting clinicians through education, practical knowledge-sharing, and a broader understanding of the healthcare systems in which they practice.
Digital Health
Exploring how technology and new models of healthcare delivery can make care more accessible, efficient, and patient-centered.
WHY I DO THIS WORK
Healthcare is more than what happens in the exam room.
I believe some of the most important work in healthcare happens outside of the clinical encounter.
A physician can provide excellent care to one patient, but the systems surrounding that physician determine how consistently that care can be delivered—and how sustainable it is for the people providing it.
My experiences across different areas of healthcare have made me increasingly interested in that bigger picture.
I want to understand how healthcare organizations make decisions, how clinicians can have a greater voice in those decisions, and how we can build systems that serve patients without losing sight of the people delivering the care.
For me, leadership is not a departure from medicine. It is an extension of it.
The same curiosity, critical thinking, advocacy, and commitment to people that drew me to medicine continue to guide the work I do today.
