My passion lies in making sense of data - analyzing and visualizing it to produce insights into real phenomena going on behind the scenes. I spent the last 7 years studying stochastic, physical processes in biological systems. I have extensive experience performing original research involving quantitative data analysis (12 peer-reviewed publications), collaborating (10+ coauthors, research mentor), and communicating my ideas and results to others (conference presenter, course instructor, office manager). I am excited to apply my skills in a data-rich industry.
