Education

Bachelor of Science in Microbiology, Southern Illinois University - Carbondale

Research

My research in the Badovinac lab focuses on primary vs repeatedly-antigen stimulated memory CD8+ T cells. I am interested in differential susceptibility of these cells to radiation-induced cell death and phenotype, as well as investigating differences of these cells in SPfree versus SPexp mouse models.

Outside Interests

I enjoy reading, embroidery, puzzles, and playing board games.
