MD Student, expected graduation Spring 2030
Bio
I am a medical student at Stanford University School of Medicine with a background in molecular biology and stem cell research. I received my B.S. in Molecular, Cell, and Developmental Biology with a minor in Biomedical Research from UCLA, where I became interested in developmental biology and stem cell-based embryo models through my work in the Clark Lab. After graduation, I joined the Briganti Lab at UC San Diego as a Staff Research Associate and Lab Manager, studying the molecular mechanisms of dilated cardiomyopathy using iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes. Building on these experiences, my current interests center on women’s health, embryo and stem cell research, and reproductive endocrinology and infertility. In my personal time, you will find me at the beach, hiking, baking, or attempting to garden.
