I'm a second-year graduate student in organic chemistry at the University of Pennsylvania, working in the Kozlowski group in the Department of Chemistry. In 2023, I received a NSF Graduate Research Fellowship.
My research efforts center on the development of novel workflows for analysis in high-throughput experimentation (HTE).
Current models for quantitative prediction of reaction outcomes are limited by the availability of large-scale experimental datasets.
Creative applications of quantitative mass spectrometry are well-suited to address this.
Previously, I studied at the University of Maryland, where I worked on cheminformatics with Team TOXIC
in the Gemstone Honors College
as well as the QUEST Honors Program.
I also worked as a research assistant in the Gutierrez Group,
where I ran DFT to better understand how nickel can form carbon-carbon bonds.
Outside the lab & classroom, I was active in student government
and Omicron Delta Kappa, the leading honors society on campus.
I also have worked with Bluebonnet Data
My research interests are primarily focused on the synergy between experiment and theory in organic chemistry. In particular, I am optimistic that improvements in computation will enable much more rapid drug development. Within this research theme, it is my hope that we can accelerate scientific progress and improve human health. For an outline of the ways in which this field can continue to grow, Houk's 2017 ACR perspective serves as a primer.
