Hello! I am a PhD student in the CBI program, which is part of the chemistry department on the Homewood campus. Before starting at Johns Hopkins, I graduated from Roanoke College in spring 2020. While there, I worked with Dr. Sarisky to study the where I studied the purine biosynthesis pathway in archaea through analysis of purF-like genes and the PurF protein. I’m excited to be here in the Kavran Lab!
