BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH

My clinical and academic areas of focus are in advancing novel radiation techniques and integrating radiation therapy with contemporary systemic therapy in the management of patients with hematologic malignancies. I have also contributed to refining and optimizing post-treatment monitoring strategies for lymphoma survivors. In the realm of education, I actively engage in mentoring and teaching trainees and faculty within my institution, as well as sharing insights and expertise through lectures delivered at various external institutions, and at national and international conferences. I have held leadership roles within professional organizations, where I have overseen educational and scientific programs, contributed to the board certification process, and played a pivotal role in guideline development on management of cancer survivors and radiotherapy applications in hematology oncology. On the administrative front, I lead initiatives geared toward fostering the professional growth and advancement of faculty members within my department and institution.
