Bio

I am a graduate student in San Francisco leveraging synthetic biology to build dynamic cell therapies. My research goal is to expand the realm of programmable immunology through cell and genome engineering to ultimately create and install new biological behavior for therapeutics and discovery.

I have been fortunate to work on several problems across biotechnology and human health. I helped characterize IS110 recombinases for bridge genome editing, built a CRISPR based diagnostic device for SARS-CoV-2 detection, and organized a clincal-grade labratory for COVID-19 testing using the PolyStick.

Aside from lab work, I enjoy biological design, biotech enterprise, interior design, and negronis.
