As a gynecologic oncologist, I treat women who have gynecologic cancers. I was drawn to the specialty because of the technical complexity of the surgeries, and the opportunity to form lasting relationships with patients as I follow them throughout their treatment and surveillance.

I treat a range of gynecologic cancers, including ovarian, uterine, cervical, and vulvovaginal cancers. With extensive surgical expertise, I perform minimally invasive laparoscopic and robotic surgeries and sentinel lymph node mapping for gynecologic malignancies. In addition to performing surgery, I administer chemotherapy and monitor patients following the completion of treatment.

As an assistant professor in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at ��ɫtv Langone, I am actively involved in training the next generation of physicians. In addition to providing high-quality, evidence-based gynecologic oncology care, I participate in ovarian cancer research. My research is focused on the immunologic microenvironment of ovarian cancer and how we can better harness a patient’s immune system to treat ovarian cancer. Through this research, I hope to influence the care of ovarian cancer patients worldwide. I was recently awarded the St. Louis Ovarian Cancer Awareness Research Grant through the Foundation for Women’s Cancer to study treatment-related changes in ovarian cancer immune microenvironment.
