 | I was born and raised in Concord, Massachusetts as the second of four children named in alphabetical order (yes, my parents are dorks). For my college years I decided to move to the South, where I have been studying at Wake Forest University for the past four years. I graduated with a BS in biology (with a minor in chemistry) in May, 2002. There, I studied the co-evolution of nuclear and mitochondrial DNA in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Although my future plans are still a bit foggy, I would like to continue with molecular genetics, and probably do either cancer research or mitochondrial disease research at Columbia. At this point, I am considering going into Industry, but who knows how I'll feel in a few years. Among other things, I enjoy listening to music, watching and discussing movies, reading, and drawing. After spending a semester abroad in London, I am excited about moving to a city again where life will be a bit more upbeat than what I have been used to for the past few years. |
