About
Bridging Medicine & Innovation
As an Internal Medicine resident at Cooper University Hospital, I am dedicated to advancing patient care through the integration of cutting-edge technology and evidence-based medicine. My journey has been shaped by a commitment to excellence in clinical practice, academic research, and medical education.
With a background spanning artificial intelligence applications in healthcare, patient safety initiatives, and extensive research experience, I bring a multidisciplinary perspective to medicine. My work has resulted in over 20 publications in peer-reviewed journals and numerous presentations at national conferences.
I will be serving as the Chief Internal Medicine Resident at Cooper University Hospital next academic year. I am passionate about creating systemic improvements in healthcare delivery while preparing for a fellowship.
