I am a third-year PhD student in the Biology department at Stanford University, where I am coadvised by Dmitri Petrov and Jonas Cremer. I am broadly interested in how complex systems process information and make decisions in dynamically changing environments. I combine tools from mathematical modeling, computation, microbiology, and molecular biology to interrogate these questions. I am funded by the Stanford Graduate Fellowship.

I was previously at UCLA, where I studied Computational and Systems Biology, Mathematics (BS) and Bioinformatics (MS). My undergraduate and masters research at UCLA was advised by Van Savage. In the Savage Lab I worked on two projects, the first on alternative segmentation and labelling schemes for resource distribution networks and the second on the relationship between cell size and antibiotic susceptibility, together with Chris Kempes and Pamela Yeh. I also conducted research at the Santa Fe institute over the Summer of 2019, where I was mentored by Chris Kempes.

I am also very interested in animal rights and the link between food systems and climate change and am part of the Stanford Alt. Protein Club. I am also part of the wonderful Stanford Womxn's Ultimate Frisbee team (Firefly)!
