Biography

I began with the School of Medicine Columbia in 2000 as a Psychiatry resident, during which time I served as an ICM small group leader. I served as ICM-I course director from 2014 to 2018, after which I entered into my current role.

Besides coming to my office, students can find me teaching a cardio class on the first Wednesday of every month in the School of Medicine courtyard.
