About

I am an undergraduate studying food science. My career goals include innovation and new product development of healthier and sustainable foods. I am enjoying working in the Ujor lab learning how to create cell factories that can produce biofuels from renewable low-cost sources with a team focused on developing sustainable solutions to increasing energy demands.

I was born in New York City but raised in Houston, Texas, where I enjoyed both city and country life. In town, we enjoyed exploring a vibrant and diverse food scene; on weekends at our family farm we grew vegetables and raised livestock. Food moves me.

When not studying or in the lab, you can find me working out or hanging out with my friends. I enjoy lacrosse and basketball and watching movies.
