About Me
Iβm interested in developing computational approaches to biological questions, from predicting how cells respond to perturbations to understanding differences between tumor environments.
At Eli Lilly this summer, I worked on pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic modeling and previously interned at Novartis developing machine learning models to predict tumorigenic potential. Currently I'm at the Broad Institute, building pipelines for CRISPR screen data analysis.
Outside of classes, I lead the logistics of HackMIT, dance on the MIT ballroom dance team, and plan a summer STEM program with dynaMIT!
