Experience: Genomics, RNA, molecular biology, high-throughput assay design

Credentials: NSF-GRFP awardee [2019], University of California, Irvine Dean’s Award for Excellence in Research [2017], and co-author of seven scientific publications.

Key Biotechnology: Sequencing by synthesis amplifies our ability to assay molecular-level features

Differentiators: I’m excited to see how our increased understanding of synthetic biology will improve our capabilities in food production and sustainability. Outside of science, I enjoy running in Central Park and surviving hot yoga.
