Biography

I am interested in bridging the gap between mathematical/computational models and biological data. My research focuses primarily on mathematical modeling and control of poorly constrained biological networks, drug combination synergy, and multiscale models coupling intracellular and environmental dynamics. I have developed and applied approaches and models toward understanding cancer control, plant signaling, and yeast growth.

I earned my PhD in Cancer Biology at Vanderbilt University under the guidance of Vito Quaranta, and am currently a postdoctoral scholar with Réka Albert in the Department of Physics at Pennsylvania State University.
