I graduated with a B.S. in biochemistry from the University of Notre Dame in 2022. There, I was involved in RNA triple helix research, sparking my interest in noncoding RNAs. As a joint graduate student with the Zamore Lab, I am currently developing an emulsion-based method to understand the biochemical mechanism of RNA cleavage by PIWI proteins.
