I completed both a BS in Molecular Genetics and a BA in English/Theater at the University of Rochester in 2009, graduating Magna Cum Laude with election to Phi Beta Kappa. I completed my PhD training in Pathology studying ubiquitin ligases in cardiac disease at the UNC Chapel Hill in 2014. I came to Roswell Park Cancer Institute in 2015 to study the mechanisms governing androgen receptor protein degradation. In 2016, I joined Dr. David Goodrich's lab to study the mechanisms driving advanced prostate cancer using mouse models.
