I am a PhD student co-advised by Joy Bergelson and Carol Huang. My research interest is in the molecular basis of plant-pathogen interactions, especially the protein-protein interactions that constitute effector-triggered immunity and differences between immune-recognition events. In the past, I was a software engineer working at various startups in various technical roles; and before that, I completed a Bachelor’s in Biomedical Engineering and a Master’s in Electrical Engineering at Georgia Tech. In my spare time, you may find me flaneuring about the beautiful city of New York, dabbling in the arts, and pretending at exercise.
