Research Interests |
I received my B.S. in Biochemistry from the University at Buffalo in May 2020. My undergraduate research consisted of characterization of small molecules as potential inhibitors of Zika virus and SARS-CoV 2 entry. I also investigated the role of host restriction factors that target HIV-1 and murine leukemia virus. My research interests lie in host-virus interactions with the goal of identifying vulnerabilities that may be exploited in the development of novel antiviral therapeutics or prophylactic interventions. When I am not in the lab I enjoy cooking and kayaking. |
