I believe in the power of scientific innovation and strive to apply my skills in a collaborative, dynamic environment. I am a Ph.D. candidate in Chemistry at the University of Texas at Dallas. Prior to this, I studied at Suffolk University, where my core classes in mathematics, chemistry, and biology shaped the path that has brought me this far. Through the McNair program, I entered graduate school, driven by a passion for teaching math and science. During my academic journey, I have taught and mentored many students in general chemistry and organic chemistry, and I look forward to refining my skills before becoming a professor. Currently, my research focuses on developing biocatalytic methodologies for synthesizing cyclopropanes.
