My bio
I am an associate professor in the division of plastic surgery at the University of Florida College of Medicine. My clinical interests include reconstructive and aesthetic plastic surgery.
I received my bachelor’s in biochemistry and medical degree from Tulane University in New Orleans. After achieving these degrees, I went on to pursue two residencies, one in general surgery at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center and another in plastic surgery at the University of Pennsylvania. Subsequently, I completed a fellowship in hand and microsurgery at California Pacific Medical Center.
Upon completing my training, I practiced in California for over 25 years, and focused on aesthetic surgery, breast reconstruction, skin cancer reconstruction and hand surgery. I returned to academics and teaching at Albany Medical Center in 2020. I am a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons and am certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. Additionally, I contributed to several research publications, attended seminars, and served as a consultant for the development of tissue expanders and biomaterials for breast reconstruction.
