Profile Summary

I’m a PhD-trained molecular and cell biologist with deep experience in functional genomics, CRISPR-based screening, next-generation sequencing, and proximity proteomics. My doctoral research at UC Santa Barbara focused on dissecting signaling and protein interaction networks using high-throughput, data-driven approaches with clear translational relevance. I’ve led projects involving CRISPRi screens, barcode sequencing analysis, BioID-based proteomics, cell line engineering, and quantitative imaging, and I enjoy working at the interface of wet lab biology and computational analysis.
