By teaching biology through a quantitative lens, I hope to prepare students for the 21st century of biological inquiry
I recently joined the Chemical and Biological Engineering Department at Colorado School of Mines as an Assistant Teaching Professor. After obtaining a BS in Mathematical and Computational Biology at Harvey Mudd College, I’ve been dedicated to approaching biology from quantitative perspectives. With that goal in mind, I completed my PhD in the Biophysics lab of Rob Phillips at the California Institute of Technology. During my time in graduate school, I took advantage of many opportunities to teach physical and quantitative biology both on and off campus, nurturing my passion for teaching and mentoring. I look forward to sharing this passion for quantitative biology with the students at Mines, as the newly-created Quantitative Biosciences and Engineering undergraduate degree takes off.
