About me

Hello, I am a fifth year PhD candidate at UW Madison in the department of Biology. I have taught introductory biology lab here at UW for six semesters, and coordinated the course for one. I absolutely love working with students and making science approachable for them.

Interests: My research focuses on mutation, where I use Drosophila melanogaster (fruit flies) to study how sex influences the number, type, and fitness effects of mutations. I am interested in all things mutation related and love to figure out how to use genomics to answer complex biological questions!
