Education
I am a sophomore pursuing a double major in Biochemistry and Microbiology and a minor in Marine Biology.
Research Interests
I became familiar with Dr. Rocap's work when she was a guest lecturer in my first marine biology class at UW. After class I contacted her and enquired about the possibility of doing undergraduate research.
Right now I'm working with Cedar doing bioinformatics on the Stramenopile Chloroplast Genomics Project, which falls under the NSF-funded umbrella program called the Assembling the Tree of Life Project. My responsibilities include analyzing, annotating and proof-reading the sequenced chloroplast genomes.
I'm looking forward to giving my first talk--entitled "The Annotation of Chloroplast Genomes: Discovering the Evolutionary History of Algal Stramenopiles"--in May at the Undergraduate Research Symposium.
