After 4 years, I am excited to announce I graduated Dartmouth College with Honors in Neuroscience! I had 4 amazing years of cool research, great mentorship, and even better friendships. Now, I will continue this journey as a Ph.D student at Brown-NIH! So incredibly grateful!!

a *very* bittersweet farewell to @DrKyleSmith, @KateNautiyal, and the labs as I head off to Philly this weekend! I’ve been so lucky to have these two in my corner all these years (& in the years to come). I’ll miss them so much 🥲🩷

had an amazing time meeting everyone and sharing a snippet of my dissertation work at @EinsteinMed this week! ☺️ FYI, all the folks around me in the photo below are incredibly kind and talented, so keep an eye out for them 👀
On Wednesday, the Dominick P. Purpura Department of Neuroscience at Einstein hosted its inaugural EDGE (Einstein Dialogues in Graduate Education) Symposium for senior Ph.D. students. #postdoc #postdocpositions #postdocjobs 1/2
