Career
- After completing my B.S. in biochemistry, I plan to participate in post-grad service. Following one or two years of service, I hope to attend medical school.
- Research Experience:
- Howard Hughes Medical Institute's Bacteriophage Lab (Fall 2012 through Spring 2013)
- Mentors: Dr. Carl Urbinati, Dr. Yiwen Fang
- Extraction and sequencing of a bacteriophage genome, using both micriobiological and bioinformatic methods.

More Information
- My favorite thing about biology is that it forces us to see ourselves as being just as embedded in nature as the life forms we study. As a species that sees itself as being highly complex and sophisticated, we often fall victim to human exceptionalism. Biology reminds us that we, as organisms, are at the mercy of the same fundamental principles as the most primordial prokaryote.
- I have very little background in computer science, but what I most appreciate about the field is its contribution to the well-being of humanity.
