Background

I did my undergraduate work at NYU in Computer Science and Physics. I originally became interested in Bioinformatics after doing an internship at Mount Sinai School of Medicine in the Biomathematics department, and came back to this area during my senior year at NYU. I enjoy applying my knowledge to real world biological problems and am particularly interested in disease research.
