- Plymouth State University
BIO
I am a PhD student in Alan Howe's lab in the Department of Pharmacology. Broadly, we are interested in the effects of cAMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA) signaling at focal adhesions and its role in cell motility and adhesion in cancer models. I graduated from Plymouth State University in 2022 with a B.S. in Biochemistry. During my time as an undergraduate, I studied aspects of metabolism underlying folliculogenesis in dairy cows, specifically interested in O-GlycNAcylation. I then worked as a lab technician in the Molecular Physiology and Biophysics department here at UVM studying the extracellular and intracellular contributions to diastolic dysfunction before joining the CMB program in 2023.
