I remember the moment I fell in love
with chemistry: I was an undergraduate student analyzing my first NMR experiment. I had taken a vial of colorless molecules, each one only a few millionths the diameter of a pencil tip, and now I could “see” them, probing their structures and inferring how they might behave.
I am a fantasy book nerd, and to me, this was magic.
Now I get to do it every day.
I work in biotech and have characterized all kinds of compounds, from small molecules to proteins, mostly by mass spectrometry. Much of my characterization and analytical chemistry experience has been in the pharmaceutical industry, and my work has supported supported regulatory filings including INDs, NDAs, and BLAs. One of my proudest moments has been helping to develop one of the COVID-19 vaccines.
I am currently looking for new scientific opportunities. Feel free to check out my CV, read more about my science, and contact me if you have an opportunity you think would be a good fit.
