I completed my psychiatry residency at The Mount Sinai Hospital in New York, where I continue to serve as an assistant clinical professor, consulting in emergency and inpatient settings. I also previously held the role of medical director for the hospital’s Partial Hospital Program.

Before specializing in psychiatry, I completed a residency in Internal Medicine at The Mount Sinai Hospital. I earned my medical degree from Tel Aviv University, where I published research in Cardiology and Urology. My undergraduate studies were at Emory University, where I majored in Neuroscience and Behavioral Biology, conducting research on the neurological basis of memory formation.
