I am not a physician. I am a Clinical Exercise Physiologist with specialized training in exercise oncology.

I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Exercise Physiology and am certified by the American College of Sports Medicine as a Cancer Exercise Specialist.

I have worked with thousands of cancer survivors and have led and supported exercise oncology research studies at Yale University and the University of Miami.

My professional background also includes experience in cardiopulmonary rehabilitation and personal training, and I am a published author in the Journal of Metabolic Syndrome and Related Disorders.

My role is to design and adjust individualized exercise programs for individuals during and after cancer treatment, using evidence-based clinical guidelines and coordinating with the healthcare team when appropriate.

All medical decisions—including diagnosis, treatment, medications, and medical clearance—remain the responsibility of the oncology care team.

Exercise, as a component of supportive cancer care, falls within my professional scope.

My focus is to help patients move safely, manage treatment-related side effects, maintain physical function, and improve quality of life.
