I am currently a 3rd year resident in the Department of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery at Johns Hopkins Hospital. Over the next two years, I will be joining Dr. Hillel's lab as part of a T32 funded training grant. Specifically, my interests will focus on the development of biomaterials and novel therapeutics to treat laryngotracheal stenosis. During this time, I hope to continue to advance as a clinician-scientist and will one day integrate the principles I learn into my clinical practice.

I was born and raised in Sudbrook, Maryland and graduated from Johns Hopkins University in 2012 with a degree in Biomedical Engineering. I went on to obtain my medical degree from the University of Maryland School of Medicine in 2017, and began my Otolaryngology training shortly thereafter.
