Hey there! Thanks for taking the time to learn more about me.

My immediate career goal is to earn a position in research and product development in the medical device or biotechnology industries.

Long story short – I’m a PhD candidate in the Microfluidics for Quantitative and Genomic Biological Laboratory within the Biomedical Engineering department at SBU, working under Prof. Eric Brouzes. My research involves technology development for microfluidic platforms to enable single-cell genomics.

I’m a non-traditional student with over ten years of experience in research and development across both industry and academia.

I completed my qualifying exam in 2019, my proposal defense in 2021, and I anticipate to defend my dissertation this year (2022)!
