Attn: I am currently looking for full-time bioinformatics/computational biology/data science positions in ~summer 2025. Please get in touch if you know of any relevant positions by emailing me here!
I am a fifth year (time flies!) PhD student in the Committee on Genetics, Genomics and Systems Biology at The University of Chicago, studying population genetics.
Briefly, I am a problem-solver at heart and absolutely enjoy solving big biological questions through innovative computational and statistical techniques. I have developed three software packages (in C++, python and R) for wider use in the community, with over 20,000 downloads in total. I have contributed to complex data analysis in seven peer-reviewed publications in fields ranging from immunology to entomology. With over eight years of experience delivering workshops in scientific computing and data visualization, I excel at bridging multiple data types using scalable programming frameworks on high-performance computing clusters. I thrive in collaborative environments and am dedicated to transforming big biological questions into actionable, data-driven solutions.
Outside of school, I enjoy meeting new people and making them laugh. I also enjoy thinking about how the world is shaped and seeing common patterns emerge across vastly different societies. On days when I’m blessed by the Divine Providence, I attempt putting these thoughts into writing.
