About

While working on my undergraduate degree in Biology (specialization in Genetic Engineering), I worked weekends at Washington University, where I helped to complete the Human Genome Project. Soon after graduation I began working at SIU School of Medicine in 2003. I started out working in some basic science laboratories doing research on Alzheimer’s, then genetic studies on lupus, and mycoplasma testing. Then in 2006, I took a leap into the clinical realm of science and worked for 7 years on cancer and exercise programs. After a brief detour to the University of Alabama at Birmingham, I returned to SIU School of Medicine in 2013. In 2014, I started a master’s program at University of Illinois at Chicago while working full-time. I obtained my Master of Engineering (MEng; specialization in Bioinformatics) in May, 2016.
