Biosketch

I am an attending Neuropathologist at Wexner Medical Center and associate attending physician at The James Cancer Center. These duties include surgical neuropathology and autopsy neuropathology. I also receive consultations from community pathologists principally regarding surgical neuropathology but am also available to interpret neuromuscular and peripheral nerve pathology.
