History
I graduated from the Engineering and Management departments at NYU Tandon and completed the Medicine program at Universidad Central Del Este with a combined MD and MS/BS. I did post-graduate research in Post-Operative Memory at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, then did residency training in General Psychiatry at New York Medical College, and furthered my training with a Fellowship in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry at the University of Arizona College of Medicine. After training, I worked as an Emergency and Inpatient Psychiatrist at St Joseph's Medical Center, as well as an outpatient community psychiatrist with the New York Psychotherapy and Counseling Center. I held parallel positions as staff psychiatrist at the Jewish Board and YAI/Premier Healthcare where I had the opportunity to help individuals across a wide range of cultural, age and life difficulty categories. Since 2012, I have been working in private practice along with hospital-based and international psychiatry.
