Originally from Richmond, VA, I completed my BS in Computer Engineering at UMBC, where I conducted research under Dr. Govind Rao at the Center for Advanced Sensor Technology (CAST) on developing biosensor technologies addressing challenges in affordability and sustainability to be used in biomedicine and the bioprocess. At Cambridge, I am exploring the fabrication of a point-of-care technology for screening, diagnosing, and tracking neuromuscular disease progression under Prof. George Malliaras in the Department of Electrical Engineering. After obtaining my Ph.D. I aim to direct my own research center, consult with policymakers, and become a global ambassador for biomedical technologies.
