What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative environment where I can leverage my biology background and research skills to contribute to innovative healthcare solutions.

I am a dedicated research technologist currently pursuing a Master's in Systems Medicine at Georgetown University. My experience at Johns Hopkins University has equipped me with hands-on skills in managing advanced MRI scanners, troubleshooting technical issues, and ensuring the smooth operation of laboratory processes. I thrive in fast-paced environments where I can contribute to cutting-edge research while maintaining meticulous attention to detail.

In addition to my technical expertise, I have a solid foundation in biology, having earned my Bachelor of Science from the University of Maryland. My coursework has included a diverse range of subjects, from Organic Chemistry to Bioinformatics, which has prepared me for the complexities of modern scientific inquiry. I am passionate about applying my knowledge to real-world challenges and am eager to make a meaningful impact in the field of healthcare and research.
