    I am a board-certified neurologist with specialization in multiple sclerosis (MS), having completed a fellowship at the University of Southern California/Keck Medicine and LAC + USC Medical Center. I completed my neurology residency at Mass General Hospital and Brigham and Women's Hospital (Harvard Medical School). I specialize in MS and also see patients for all neurological conditions (general neurology). I am a compassionate neurologist, dedicated to helping my patients thrive and lead the best quality of life possible. One of my passions is striving for diversity and inclusion in MS clinical trials in addition to working fiercely for timely access to medical care and treatment, particularly among our Hispanic and African-American patients with MS.
