Director

I have directed three independent cancer institutes, collectively representing 17 hospitals and 12 cancer centers.  I am a hematologist and medical oncologist who has been the institutional principal investigator on nearly 100 clinical trials involving breast cancer, myeloma, prostate cancer, lung cancer, melanoma, ovarian cancer, head and neck cancer, myelodysplastic syndrome, CLL, DLBCL, esophageal cancer, etc.  I was on three papers published in The New England Journal of Medicine (prostate cancer, chronic neutrophilic leukemia, lung cancer) and two in Lancet (Shingles vaccine and head and neck cancer).  I am board certified in hematology, medical oncology, internal medicine, and artificial intelligence in medicine.


As depicted in my profile, my training background includes:
MD:  Mayo Clinic
PhD in biochemistry:  Mayo Clinic
MBA:  University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill
Internal Medicine Residency:  George Washington University Hospital with 4 months at the NIH
Hematology/Oncology Clinical Fellowship:  Stanford
Biochemistry Post-Doctoral Fellowship:  Stanford
MIT Xpro Course Certificate:  Designing Artificial Intelligence Products 
MIT Xpro: Course Certificate:  Robotics Essentials 
MIT Xpro: Course Certificate:  Drug and Medical Device Development 
MIT Professional Education Course Certificate:  Applied Data Science Bootcamp

I resisted the trend towards subspecialization in my career as I feel ideation often happens at the level of the forest, not the trees.  Many of the greatest future innovations will be at the interface of various disciplines. 

My area of clinical expertise is precision medicine, and my ability to treat patients in all hematology/medical oncology disciplines uniquely positions me to sequence molecular-based therapies in the context of conventional therapy and clinical trials.

I am the CEO and Founder of three companies:  CancerClarity, CancerLight, and Revolution Cancer Medical Care PLLC.  We are early in our development as we hope to disrupt the clinical trial, patient education, and clinical care forums.  Aside from building my two companies, I am a consulting medical director for 2 phase 1 Xbiotech clinical trials (pancreatic cancer), consult for numerous other pharmaceutical companies, and see patients full-time in the clinic as a hematologist/medical oncologist.  I recently turned down several high-visibility positions to pursue my vision.

My singular focus is to help as many people as I can in the shortest time frame possible.
