Biography

I received my MS in Bioinformatics and Computational Biology from the UMN in 2019. My research focuses on developing software solutions for the detection and characterization of DNA adducts. I am also a Research Scientist at the Center for Mass Spectrometry and Proteomics (CMSP), specializing in small molecule studies and bioinformatics analyses. When I'm not on campus, you will find me exploring the Twin Cities, playing volleyball, or curled up with a blanket, slaying orcs.
