I’m working to understand the role of certain plant ESCRT proteins in the late stages of protein cargo packaging. In my free time I enjoy growing and propagating plants native to Wisconsin, reading (favorite authors Neil Gaiman and Sharon Creech), and boating/waterskiing.
I’m studying the role of ESCRT proteins during plant development. Outside the lab, I enjoy reading, collecting pins, creating bracelets with gemstones, and observing local plants.
I’m studying the role of some unique ESCRT proteins and domains in plants. Outside of research, I enjoy running in the beautiful Madison arboretum, video games, and board game nights with friends.
I am studying the functional dynamics of autophagy receptors in Maize, with a focus on their regulatory mechanisms for plant biology. Outside of research, I have a strong passion for travel and actively engage in tennis and badminton.
