About Me
As a board-certified dermatologist and fellowship-trained cosmetic dermatologic surgeon at ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ, I am dedicated to helping my patients look and feel their best. My approach to care emphasizes aging gracefully, patient comfort, and improving quality of life through holistic measures. I find great joy in seeing the positive impact that tailored dermatologic treatments can have on my patients’ confidence and overall wellbeing.
I specialize in the use of energy-based devices for patients of all skin types, including lasers, microneedling, radiofrequency, ultrasound, and intense pulsed light. My expertise also extends to medical-grade skincare products and cosmeceuticals, which I use to help patients achieve their unique skin health goals. Additionally, I have extensive training in the use of injectables such as neuromodulators, soft tissue fillers, biostimulators, and platelet-rich plasma. My medical dermatology interests include managing conditions like melasma and acne, ensuring comprehensive care for a wide range of skin concerns.
Throughout my career, I have been committed to proactive healthcare engagement, focusing on patient education and fostering strong partnerships. My clinical and research interests revolve around innovative dermatologic treatments and the use of advanced technologies to enhance patient outcomes. I am passionate about medical education, mentorship, global health, and driving innovation within the field of dermatology.
My journey in medicine began in Chicago and took me across the country, from bustling New York City to sunny Miami, Florida. I am thrilled to be back at ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ, where I collaborate with a dedicated team to provide coordinated, seamless care. My educational background includes a doctor of medicine (MD) and a master of public health (MPH), which have equipped me with a comprehensive understanding of both clinical practice and public health principles. My inspiration for pursuing a career in dermatology stems from a desire to blend science, artistry, and patient care to make a meaningful difference in my patients’ lives.
