I am a graduate student in the Banta Lab at Columbia University in the Department of Chemical Engineering. Our lab works on protein and metabolic engineering for a variety of applications. My work is focused around heterogeneous biocatalysis and more specifically, the use of E. coli as a whole-cell biocatalyst.

Education

  • 2014 (expected), PhD in ChemE, Columbia University, New York, NY
  • 2011, MS in ChemE, Columbia University, New York, NY
  • 2009, BS in ChemE, Northeastern University, Boston, MA

Research interests

My research interests all relate to engineering and using biology for a variety of applications including catalysis, sensing, structural functions, biomaterials, and therapeutics.

  1. Protein Engineering
  2. Metabolic Engineering
  3. Synthetic Biology
  4. Heterogeneous Biocatalysis
  5. Biomaterials
