Introduction

I am a MD/PhD student in Ron Do’s lab at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. I work at the intersection of machine learning and genomics. Previously, I was a Vagelos Scholar at the University of Pennsylvania, where I worked on CAR T cell development and hemophilia A inhibitors in the laboratories of Vijay Bhoj and Ben Samelson-Jones.
