I obtained my PhD degree from the Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Program at Baylor College of Medicine, working on how tumor-associated vascular normalization enhances immune infiltration. My current work is to identify molecular traits that potentiate immune evasion during metastasis initiation. I hope my work will help to eradicate metastases by harnessing the power of host immunity. In my spare time, I enjoy the diverse cuisine of New York City restaurants.
