I am a current Ph.D. candidate in the Interdisciplinary Program in Neuroscience at Georgetown University, and hold a bachelor degree in biology with a concentration in neuroscience from Austin College. I am a Phi Theta Kappa and Jack Kent Cooke Scholar Alumnus, and a current Healy and SfN NSP Fellow. I work with Dr. Jeffrey Huang investigating the crosstalk between the immune system and CNS cells in mouse models of multiple sclerosis. My training includes techniques such as focal spinal cord surgery, ribosome immunoprecipitation, and RNA sequencing
