I’m a PhD candidate in the Dunlop Lab and Biological Design Center at Boston University, where I build experimental and computational workflows for molecular sequence design. My work explores how engineered sequences, genetic circuits, and cellular programs can be designed, measured, and modeled to make biological engineering more programmable and efficient.
I am helping organize the trainee-led 2027 Synthetic Biology Gordon Research Seminar, held ahead of the associated Synthetic Biology GRC. The seminar will bring together PhD trainees and postdocs to share work spanning programmable biological control, genome and cellular engineering, AI-guided design, automation, sustainable biomanufacturing, and the translation of synthetic biology toward therapeutic, environmental, and industrial applications.
Co-first-author work on optimal string packing for dense promoter sequence design was published in PLOS Computational Biology.
A molecular toolkit for engineering synthetic yeast communities was published in Nature Microbiology.
Co-first-author work on spontaneously establishing syntrophic yeast communities was published in Nature Chemical Biology.
