My clinical interests include the care of children and young adults with central nervous system (CNS) tumors at diagnosis and relapse. I am a member of the Experimental Therapeutics program at Children's Hospital Colorado and conduct clinical trials for children with difficult to treat CNS tumors.
Research Interest for Referring Providers
My research interests are primarily focused on the translation of laboratory-based discoveries into clinical trials for children with relapsed/refractory central nervous system tumors.
