I am an Assistant Professor of Gynecologic Oncology at UTHealth Houston/McGovern Medical school, and I am passionate about gynecologic cancer research and social media, especially using social media to educate people around the work on gynecologic cancers.  I have a special interest in global gynecologic oncology and providing care to immigrant communities in the US. I am an active collaborator with the Guatemalan Cancer Institute on several studies, and I have participated in clinical work and research in Central and South America, Asia, and Africa. I have experience designing, coordinating, and monitoring public health programs in low- and middle-income countries.
