Bio
I was born in China and moved to Chicago for residency training after I graduated from medical school. I have a Ragdoll cat and a Shiba Inu dog (the "Dogecoin" dog), and my biggest challenge in life now is to have them live peacefully together. Indy is a lovely, booming city. It is affordable and has a lot of nice restaurants. The one thing I love the most here is our patients. I've learned a lot from them. They've made me not just a better oncologist but a better human being.

My clinical interests are breast cancer and GI malignancies, especially women's care. In the future, I would like to focus on using tumor and host genome analysis to optimize personalized treatment.
