I am a creative interdisciplinary researcher with product and project manager skillset.

I am committed to create, and collaborate on meaningful projects related to environmental health and security.

I work at the intersection of biotechnology, design, and environmental justice. With a background project management, I’m currently pursuing a degree at NYU Tandon School of ENgineering where I collaborate with Living interface laboratory as a Fulbright Scholar.

I focus on the role of emerging biotechnologies in shaping sustainable futures.

My recent work explores synthetic biology, bioinformatics, and environmental monitoring, especially through community-driven research.

One of my core projects involves developing DNA-based biosensors to detect heavy metal contamination in soil—starting with Brooklyn’s Gowanus Canal. I’m exploring and interested in how tools like LAMP based PCR, microfluidics, and low-cost diagnostics can empower communities and contribute to bioremediation efforts.

I am a lifelong learner, asking questions, and discovering new things about the world. I believe in the importance of building a dialogue between science and society, as well as that is important to spread passion for science and pursue responsible research.

I also love to travel, and experience new “states”. Recently I started to run, last year I run my first half-marathon and this year I prepare to run a marathon in the Fall.
