Bio

I'm a PhD student in EECS at MIT, advised by Prof. Regina Barzilay. I obtained a BSc in Mathematics and Chemistry from Duke in 2019. My undergraduate research was in computational cancer metabolism and focused on understanding the one-carbon (SGOC) metabolic network and the effect of dietary restriction. My work at MIT has included developing computer vision models for cancer risk assessemnt. My current interests include therapeutic discovery through the application of AI to metabolism and biocatalysis.
