Personal Information

I am a highly self-motivated, well organized and detail oriented research assistant. I am proficient in mammalian tissue culture, basic molecular biology skills, sample prep, instrument operation, data analysis and laboratory management procedures.

I enjoy running, coaching youth soccer, backpacking, cross country skiing, teaching art skills in our local grade schools as well as organizing and participating in fund-raising efforts within our local school system.
