I am currently a third year student in the Churchman Lab, where we study gene regulation at high resolution. I am interested in understanding the interplay between chromatin and transcription regulation and feedback. I grew up in Grand Rapids, Michigan and attended Dartmouth College for undergrad, where I studied computer science and biology. After graduate school, I am interested in pursuing a career in teaching; as such, I'm involved with several outreach programs to teach students - ranging from middle school through college - computational biology. In my spare time, I enjoy swimming, reading, and baking.
