About Me

I am a double-board certified physician in radiation oncology (DABR) and clinical informatics (DABPM-CI), currently serving as Chair and Medical Director of Radiation Oncology and Oncology Research at Capital Health. My work sits at the intersection of clinical care, leadership, and technology.

I am deeply committed to serving the underserved in some of our most vulnerable cities. I have spent my career in communities like Newark and now Trenton, delivering advanced cancer care where it is needed most. I am passionate about improving access to cutting-edge treatments while addressing the social determinants of health.

As a co-founder of Bayta Systems and Bridge Oncology, I focus on bridging disparities in cancer care for underserved populations and delivering technology-driven solutions to advance digital transformation in healthcare.
