Greetings!
I am a recipient of the National Science Foundation's 2021 Postdoctoral research fellowship in Biology (Area 3: Plant Genomics). Currently, I am hosted by The Sussman Lab at The University of Wisconsin-Madison.
I am interested in the molecular and cellular basis of distyly, an angiosperm reproductive system that confers self-incompatibility. To learn more about this fascinating subject, check out the distyly Wikipedia page I update semi-annually.
During my PhD, I worked on unraveling the genetic basis of distyly in Turnera (Passifloraceae). I helped characterize two of the three genes responsible for distyly in the family. With my NSF funding, I will work towards the characterization of the third gene.
Science and research are my passion. I am fortunate to have been given many opportunities to expand my knowledge and career.
Aside from science, I enjoy video games, long walks / short hikes, exploration, horror movies, and drinking with my cats.
Research interests: distyly, plant reproduction, molecular biology, bioinformatics, genetics
