Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center
New York, NY
Born in Manila, raised in Brooklyn, I attended Brown University, where I studied Neuroscience and History. I discovered my love for multidisciplinary cancer care as a medical student at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. Inspired by time on the wards, I began research at MSK, using advanced imaging to monitor tumor response to radiotherapy. Meanwhile at Penn, under the mentorship of Neha Vapiwala, I studied the comparative effectiveness of proton versus photon therapy in mitigating toxicity in patients with prostate cancer. Additionally, I have been involved in a variety of research endeavors that encompass my broad interests in health services, policy, ethics, and diversity in medical education. I completed my Transitional Year Internship at MSK and am excited to continue my training in the Radiation Oncology Residency Program.
