I graduated from the University of Michigan in 2020 with majors in Molecular, Cellular, Developmental Biology and Evolutionary Anthropology. There I studied palindromic regions of the sex chromosomes in Mus musculus. I hope to expand on my interests in ancient DNA and evolutionary genomics as well as the development of computational tools for their study while at Princeton. In my spare time I enjoy participating in musical ensembles, hiking, and spending time with family and friends.
