Biography
I grew up in Syracuse, NY, and spent my early adulthood in Albany, NY while studying at Siena College and subsequently Albany Medical College. During my time in undergrad as well as medical school, I was fortunate to work directly with underserved communities both locally and abroad, and naturally was drawn to the mission of Boston Medical Center to pursue my Internal Medicine training. After three incredible years of residency at BMC, I am thrilled to start my new role as the VA Boston Clinical Chief at West Roxbury and serve our nation’s veterans. After chief year, I plan on pursuing a career in academic cardiology and medical education.
