Assistant Research Professor
at Johns Hopkins University
I received my undergraduate degree in chemistry from Manchester College (now Manchester University) in North Manchester, Indiana. I earned my PhD in biochemistry and molecular biology from Johns Hopkins School of Public Health studying CRISPR-Cas biology in Scott Bailey's lab in 2019. I then joined Tom Cech's lab at the University of Colorado Boulder for my postdoctoral fellowship, where I studied telomere synthesis and inhibition. During this time I also started a protein engineering project that (although as yet incomplete) helped to push me towards my current position in Jamie Spangler's lab.
