Clinical Associate Professor
My research interests relate to outcomes and quality improvement in head and neck cancer. I spent an additional year of training after residency specializing in head and neck oncology and microvascular reconstruction. The University of Michigan has a cohesive, collaborative group of surgeons, radiation oncologists, medical oncologists, and basic science researchers interested in advancing the field of head and neck cancer.
