I am a transplant hepatologist, clinical researcher, and Assistant Professor of Medicine at the University of North Carolina (UNC). I practice within the UNC Multidisciplinary HCC Clinic. The overall goal of my clinical work and research is to improve outcomes among patients with liver disease and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) by identifying risk factors for liver disease and HCC development, optimizing earlier disease detection and designing interventions to proactively address symptoms and liver-related decompensation related to HCC treatments.
