About Me
I was always interested in science as a child, but I also had a deep love for the performing arts, specifically dance. During my freshman year of college at NYU Tisch School of the Arts, I realized I could combine these passions through the specialty of sports medicine.
As a primary care sports medicine specialist, I treat people who have a variety of musculoskeletal conditions. I see both athletes and nonathletes of all ages and skill levels at ºÙºÙÊÓƵ’s Sports Medicine Center.
From my training in primary care family medicine, I’ve learned to see my patients as more than just a swollen knee or a fractured finger. I believe it's important to step back and look at a person holistically. This allows me to see what medical or social issues my patients might have as a result of or in addition to their injury. I try to take these issues into account and provide a treatment plan that addresses all of their needs. My goal is to keep people active, encourage them to lead healthy lifestyles, and help them return to the activities they enjoy.
In 2020, I became the head team physician for the USA Men’s Ski Jumping Team. I also serve as the medical director for Convent of the Sacred Heart and the athletics department at Baruch College and Yeshiva University.
