About me:
I'm a Damon Runyon Quantitative Biology Fellow at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, working with John Chodera (with joint mentorship from Markus Seeliger) studying protein dynamics and their relevance in therapeutic resistance and drug discovery.
I use a variety of computational and experimental approaches, including using the Folding@home Platform - a distributed computing network that runs Molecular Dynamics simulations using the donated compute power of volunteers.
I completed my PhD in Computational and Molecular Biophysics with Greg Bowman at Washington University in St. Louis. My work involved developing ways to parse dynamics and allostery (how distant amino-acids impact one another) from MD simulations to explain biological mechanism.
