I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology from The Pennsylvania State University, where I studied the role of 2’3’ cyclic nucleotide monophosphates in bacteria under the supervision of Dr. Emily Weinert. My research in the Wang Lab primarily focuses on identifying and interpreting interconnections & potential crosstalk between different nucleotide-signaling pathways. Outside of lab, I enjoy watching movies, cooking, snowboarding, and enjoying some cold craft beers with friends.
