Research Interests

I’ve always been very fascinated with diseases and what potentially causes them. I don’t have a single disease or pathogen that I want to focus on specifically, but I hope to apply my passion of this field in my dissertation lab. I really enjoy working with animal models because I like to see the translation between research animals and humans, so that one day we can make a major impact on the overall health and well-being in our communities.
