About Me: I am a PhD candidate at the Washington University in St. Louis in Computer Science under the guidance of Dr. Michael Brent. My research primarily involves the study of transcriptional regulation and its role in exceptional longevity. Prior to pursuing my doctorage degree, I obtained my Bachelors in Mathematics and Computer Science from the the University of Puget Sound.
