Research interests

I am interested in understanding factors that impact immune memory and how immune memory modulates de novo T cell responses in the context of dengue and Zika infection.

Biography

I am a postdoctoral research associate in Laura Rivino’s research group at the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine. I have also completed postgraduate studies at Cornell University, TETmedical, and the University Arizona investigating B cell immune responses to SARS-CoV-2 and HCV, as well as liver enzyme diagnostic assay developement. During my graduate studies at the University of Arizona, I used structural biology and biochemical assays to study mechanisms of antibiotic resistance in Enterococcus faecium and developed a NMR-based method to screen SARS-CoV-2 antigen–antibody interactions.
