Brief Biographical Sketch:

Hi everyone! So here's a little about who I am.

I'm a sixth year graduate student in the department of biochemistry. I love biological molecules (proteins, nucleic acids, homones, ect) - after all, they make up all of us and changes in how these molecules are structured or regulated can have all kinds of interesting effects on us. My research is focused on how a sub-set of these molecules (enzymes) works and how they have evolved to do their particular jobs.
My more interesting hobbies include backpacking, and snowboarding.
My career goal is to be a professor.
