About

He completed an internship in internal medicine at Kaiser Permanente Medical Center, followed by residencies in radiation oncology at the MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston and UC San Francisco School of Medicine. Before joining the UCI School of Medicine and UCI Health, he served as residency director for radiation oncology at the UC Davis School of Medicine, vice chair of radiation oncology at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, then chair of radiation oncology at the University of Kansas School of Medicine in Kansas City.
He also holds master's degrees in business administration from the Anderson School of Management at UCLA, where he was awarded the John Wooden Global Leadership Fellowship, and the National University of Singapore-Business School, where he studied international finance and business development.
