Undergraduate Institution: University of California, Davis
Looking Back: "I am grateful to have studied at Scripps Research and under Dr. McHeyzer-Williams. I met so many great people along the way and I couldn’t have asked for a better group to learn from and grow with. I am so appreciative of the Scripps grad program because it fosters creativity and allowed me to really dig into my research."
Next Steps: "I am currently working at Immunai, a New York City based biotechnology company. We are leveraging single cell multi-omics and AI technology to develop novel immunotherapeutics."
