Dermatology Resident Physician at MedStar Health
MD, MAPP - Dermatology Resident at MedStar Health
I am a dermatology resident physician at MedStar in Washington, DC. My professional interests are in healthcare policy, cultural-competency, and medical education. I have an MD and MA in Public Policy from the University of Chicago. I am highly proficient in Spanish, Portuguese, and Hindi-Urdu, and strive to help all of my patients feel welcome while caring for them. 

During medical school I worked for the medical boards prep company USMLE-Rx as a content writer. 

I also enjoy writing about the value of interfaith dialogue. I have been interviewed by the New York Times, PBS, and Al Jazeera, and my articles have been featured on the Huffington Post, KevinMD, Religion News Service, and other outlets.

Some of my clinical interests include autoimmune diseases such as vasculitis, as well as skin of color.

I joined the Interfaith Youth Core as an undergraduate, working to promote community service through the lens of interfaith dialogue and cooperation.
