About

I graduated from the University of California, Irvine in 2017 with a B.S. in Biological Sciences. During my undergraduate studies I researched how the brain supports temporally organized memories by utilizing high-density electrophysiological recording techniques on rats performing complex memory tasks in Dr. Fortin’s Lab.

In 2019 I entered the Interdepartmental Neuroscience program at the University of California, Irvine and then joined the Lane lab in the Department of Neurobiology and Behavior. I am currently studying how JHMV infection affects disease progression and pathology in preclinical animal models of Alzheimer’s disease in the hopes to later be able to assess how SARS-CoV-2 infection affects disease in these animal models.
