I am from Frederick, Maryland and attended Auburn University for my undergraduate studies where I received a BS in Biochemistry. As an undergraduate I worked in the lab of Dr. Evert Duin studying metalloenzymes in methanogenic archaea. I joined the Luftig Lab as a research technician in 2021, where I assist various projects around the lab. Outside of the lab I volunteer as an EMT with South Orange Rescue Squad in Orange County. I am currently pursuing my AEMT certification as well as my Private Pilot’s License. I enjoy spending time with my fiance and our dog Zuko, as well as movies, TV, books, music, and video games.
