About Me

I'm an ophthalmologist specializing in adult comprehensive and pediatric ophthalmology and strabismus in the Hampton Roads region of Virginia. I am also completing a master's in computer science through Arizona State University with a focus on data science and machine learning. My goal is to work at the intersection of these two fields.
