Biography

Originally from the Boston area, I relocated to Kansas City in 2014. I fell in love with pathology and dermatopathology because of the visual nature and pattern based approach to arriving at at a diagnosis and also enjoy the clinicopathologic correlation with dermatologists. I was drawn to University Health/UMKC because I am passionate about teaching and providing care to a broad patient population.

I have been in practice for over 10 years now with a focus on dermatopathology. My interests include pigmented lesions and cutaneous soft tissue tumors.
