Biography

I am a board-certified ophthalmologist at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center. I specialize in diagnosing and treating a range of eye conditions, with a focus on glaucoma, cataracts, diabetic and hypertensive retinopathy, and pediatric ophthalmology.

My patients can rely on me for high-quality, compassionate care and clear, honest communication in every encounter. I work closely with a multidisciplinary team to ensure each patient receives personalized care tailored to their unique needs and vision goals.

In addition to my clinical responsibilities, I am passionate about education and mentorship. I serve as an assistant clinical professor of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences at The Ohio State University College of Medicine, where I help train the next generation of eye care specialists.

In order to provide effective management of these relationships, the University requires annual disclosures from all faculty members with external interests related to their University responsibilities.
