About

I am a healthcare-focused professional with experience in clinical research, patient coordination, and community service. In my current role at Weill Cornell Medicine, I coordinate phase 2 Alzheimer’s disease clinical trials, managing patient scheduling, study visit logistics, regulatory documentation, data management, and communication with patients, families, physicians, nurses, pharmacy staff, and research teams. My work has strengthened my ability to stay organized, communicate clearly, support older adults and families through sensitive situations, and manage complex responsibilities in a healthcare setting. I am especially passionate about patient-centered care, care coordination, and improving access to quality healthcare. Through my research experience and volunteer work, I have developed a strong commitment to service, compassion, and helping people navigate challenging circumstances with dignity and support.
