Bio

I completed my PhD in Bioengineering at UC San Diego, working in Jeff Hasty's lab. My research journey has been focused on synthetic biology, particularly  on unraveling the complexities of bacterial dynamics at various levels: the single cell, the population, and the community.

My approach to research results from a blend of molecular biology, engineering approaches, mathematical modelling and computational analysis. Currently, I'm leading exciting projects at Bloom Science as the lead Synthetic Biologist. Here, I'm spearheading the development of innovative engineered bacterial therapies which leverage the gut-brain axis to treat a wide range of neurological diseases.
