My Portfolio
I have 5+ years of life sciences marketing experience (including 2+ years of product marketing) and over 10 years of molecular biology experience. I earned my Ph.D. in Molecular & Cell Biology at UC Berkeley studying germline regeneration and also gained experience in single cell genomics while at the Broad Institute. Outside of work I love doing photography in nature or in the lab and doing educational science outreach.

Music:
I created the song "Dream Bean" while I was writing my PhD dissertation at UC Berkeley. I used the caustic application.
Science Writing and Media:
Videos:
A short dissection demonstration of crustacean gonad dissection.
A short video I made with my colleagues in grad school which features some of my time-lapse photography.
