I’m a K99/R00 awardee in the Rangamani Lab at UC San Diego, focused on developing computational models at the interface of cell signaling and cell mechanics.
As I transition to independence, I plan to start my own research group that integrates experiments and computational models to elucidate the biophysics of immune cells.
Welcome to my website.
My Mission
The broad goal of my scientific research is to explore the interplay between intracellular signaling and mechanics by developing computational models informed by experimental data. In my current position as a postdoctoral researcher in the Rangamani Lab at UCSD, I led development for a software framework to run finite element simulations of signaling pathways within realistic cellular geometries, known as Spatial Modeling Algorithms for Reactions and Transport (SMART). I am currently using this framework to study mechanotransduction signaling in response to nanoscale topographical cues. More details can be found on my research page and my full list of publications can be found here.
In addition to my specific scientific work, I like to ask big questions through music and writing. Check out my blog or my music if you want to see some musings on these sort of issues.
