Before embarking on her professional journey, she received her medical degree from Topiwala National Medical College and is board-certified in pediatrics and pediatric hematology-oncology. Her leadership experience, having been selected as chief during both her residency at SUNY Downstate Health Sciences University and her fellowship in Pediatric Hematology/Oncology at New York Presbyterian Hospital (Cornell Campus), has equipped her with the skills to effectively lead large teams, troubleshoot complex challenges, and implement strategic solutions in clinical settings.

Her research emphasizes the expansion of haploidentical bone marrow transplantation, addressing the infectious complications associated with HLA mismatched transplants, and improving outcomes through donor-derived adoptive T cell therapies. This has led to the development of unique algorithms for selecting patients for T-cell therapy, based on inherited HLA polymorphisms, providing a personalized approach to treatment.
