About Me
I care for patients who are diagnosed with lymphoma. I am really passionate about my work because our scientific understanding of lymphoma is rapidly increasing. This new knowledge is helping us care for our patients better. I strive to understand my patients, both how they feel physically and emotionally. I aim to guide my patients through the best treatment options for them. These choices may include new treatments and clinical trials. I always try to treat my patients like my own family.

Ratings and Reviews
The ratings and reviews are based on patient responses to the overall provider rating question from the survey. The question reads: “Using any number from 0 to 10, where 0 is the worst provider possible and 10 is the best provider possible, what number would you use to rate this provider?” Responses are converted to a 5-point rating system and applied consistently to all providers. Learn more about our survey process. Patients who see some types of providers receive a different version of the patient satisfaction survey. Those results are not available on DukeHealth.org.
Training and Education
Clinical Focus and Research
My research interests focus on T-cell lymphoma. Specifically, I am interested in the clinical development of new treatments for this group of diseases, including anaplastic large cell lymphoma, angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma, and peripheral T-cell lymphoma NOS.
