In high school I focused on honors and Advanced Placement biology classes and went on to get a Bachelors Degree in biology from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 2011. At MIT, I worked in various fields including molecular microbiology and tissue regeneration. After graduation, I worked at the Medical College of Wisconsin as a research technologist in a heart development lab to help find a more efficient way to differentiate stem cells into heart cells. Our work was presented at a national NIH conference in September 2013.
High Efficiency Cardiomyogenesis from Pluripotent Cells Induced by Modulated and Sequential Activation of Wnt, Activin-A and BMP4. Poster displayed at NHLBI Symposium on Cardiovascular Regenerative Medicine, NIH, Washington D.C. September 2013.
Currently I am in the Molecular, Cell Biology and Biochemistry PhD Program at Boston University. As of now I am unsure of what field I will be pursuing, but there are many interesting labs and departments for me to rotate through at BU!
