Hi! I'm so glad you're here!
This website is all about letting you in on the secret life of a single mom earning her PhD in Biology (it's not always pretty, or easy!). I'm here to encourage those of you out there who may be in a similar situation: it can be done! You are not alone.
Please click around to check out some of the awesome things I get to do! Thanks for stopping by!
Education
2021 - current
PhD Biology
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute
My graduate research centers on understanding how the time of day, through circadian rhythms, influences immune response to pathogens. I use a variety of techniques to answer these important questions, including primary cell culture, microscopy, and multi-omic data analytics.
2008 - 2012
B.S. Biology
Roberts Wesleyan College
I completed my B.S. degree in Biology at a small, liberal arts college in Western NY. I completed a year of research studying HIF-1 alpha's role in cellular biology.
2019
N/A
Syracuse University
I took a painting class which broadened my use of acrylic mediums, color, and texture expression on the canvas.
