| Born and raised in the northern suburbs of New York City, I first moved to New York City in 1996 to attend New York University. During my time there, I majored in Biology and Earth/Environmental Sciences, became addicted to specialty coffee, and became a die-hard New Yorker. I graduated from NYU in 2000 with a bachelors in Biology and have spent the last 2 years at Cornell University Medical Center in Manhattan working in the laboratory of Drs. Andrew Dannenberg and Kotha Subbaramaiah. The focus of my work revolves around the involvement of Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) in human cancer and carcinogenesis, and the signaling pathways that lead to its disregulation.
A black belt in Tae kwon do, I spend most of my free time training for competition, practicing yoga, bicycling, reading, cooking and taking interest in the world around me. I also spend weekends working with Habitat for Humanity, and spend 2-3 nights a month on call as a Rape Crisis and Domestic Violence Counselor, assisting survivors whom are brought to the emergency departments at St Luke's and Roosevelt hospitals. |
