I am a pathologist with subspecialty expertise in hematopathology and molecular genetic pathology. My work within the Division of Hematopathology includes interpretation and diagnosis of bone marrow and lymph node biopsies using microscopic, immunohistochemical, flow cytometric, and molecular techniques. As part of the Division of Personalized Genomic Medicine, I analyze mutational profiles of cancer specimens and look for biomarkers that will help guide prognosis and treatment. I also work on the development and validation of emerging molecular assays which can better inform personalized cancer treatment.

My research is focused on identifying the underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms of hematologic malignancies and the translation of these findings into clinical care. I have a special interest in the genetics of T-cell lymphomas, myeloproliferative neoplasms, and acute leukemias.
