Born and raised in Chicago. Living and learning in the San Francisco Bay Area. I love early-stage, foundational research and am attracted to opportunities that enable me to live in alignment with my values: curiosity, connection, gratitude, and creativity. In my free time, I’m practicing clawhammer banjo, throwing pottery in my garage studio, growing brassica in my garden, or crouched over taking photos of flowers on my hikes around the Bay Area.
