Broadly, I am interested in understanding how genetic and environmental variation shape phenotypic variation across different timescales.

Congratulations to the 342 students from the Duke University School of Medicine who graduate this month. Despite a historically challenging year, faced with the COVID-19 pandemic and the ongoing impacts of social injustice, students pushed forward with hard work and dedication. We celebrate their many accomplishments and wish them the best in the years ahead.

Before grad school, I spent several years in biomedical research as a laboratory technician, project manager, and clinical trials coordinator. I came to graduate school because I wanted to develop as an independent thinker.
