| Introduction | I am a retired eye physician and surgeon who is now mentoring and educating at the intersection of music, art and medicine. As a fellow at Harvard University in the Advanced Leadership Initiative, I collated a best practices rubric for a medical school humanities curriculum. I still teach as an Assistant Clinical Professor of Ophthalmology at Yale University School of Medicine, and as an Adjunct Clinical Assistant Professor of Ophthalmology and a member of the Humanities and Medicine Committee and the Music and Medicine Initiative at Weill Cornell Medical College. I am the Cultural Ambassador of the Waterbury Symphony Orchestra, a founder and president of The Connecticut Summer Opera Foundation, and serve on the Board of Directors of The Connecticut Virtuosi Orchestra. I am a graduate of Princeton University, Weill Cornell Medical College, Bascom Palmer Eye Institute and the Proctor Foundation of the University of California, San Francisco. CV upon request. |
