I am a 5th year Ph.D Candidate at the City University of New York (CUNY) in the Biology program and Neuroscience subprogram with nearly a decade of lab-based neuroscience experience.

 

My doctoral research focuses on under-covering a lesser known mechanism of monoamine neurotransmission. Specifically, we study the release of serotonin via the serotonin transporter evoked by the GPCR  subunits, beta and gamma. 

​

Outside of lab work, I am passionate about advocacy and equal opportunity in STEM, communicating science, and dismantling scientific misinformation. I believe that science is for everyone, and it is our job to ensure everyone can safely explore their interests.
