Undergraduate Degree:

Research Synopsis:

     I just joined the lab in April of 2008. I have been working on the Stn1 project with Song. We are trying to characterize the stn1 mutant in Arabidopsis. Thus far we have found that it has a very distinct phenotype. I am currently focusing on the ORP and finishing my classes. This summer I will be starting my own project which is TBD. I spend the majority of my time outside the lab with my lab, Lily. She is almost a year old but still acts like she did at 3 months. She has endless energy and loves all people and other dogs.
