Excited to share that post-Ph.D., I’ll be joining Milken Institute's SPARC team as a Senior Associate! Looking forward to applying my scientific training and strategic thinking to support initiatives that fund medical research & accelerate developments that benefit millions.
Did I hire my favorite photographer to take photos after my thesis seminar? Yes, yes I did. First Ph.D. to graduate from @jerwinlab! @LieberInstitute @CMM_JHU

Re-emerging on here to tell you… I'm graduating! Join me at my thesis defense seminar Friday, March 1st at 11am to learn more about my work at the intersection of repeat and RNA biology. If you'd like to attend, please message me to access via Zoom link!

A good day at #ASHG2023! Got lots of visits and questions about our work at the intersection of long read sequencing and somatic instability of repetitive sequences in context of rare disease XDP. Thanks for the mentorship @jerwinlab @apuapaquola @timp0 🧬 @GeneticsSociety

Excited to share that our @jerwinlab and @LieberIstitute study has been published today in @APApsychiatric, where we recapitulated transcriptional changes in postmortem brains of schizophrenia patients using an iPSC-derived brain organoid model. ajp.psychiatryonline.org/doi/10.1176/ap… (1/14)
