About

I joined the Department of Biomedical Engineering and the Institute for Quantitative Health Science & Engineering in March 2017. My main responsibility at IQ and BME is to support the research labs and manage departmental research equipment. I also handle the finances for the IQ core facilities. Prior to joining BME and IQ, I worked for the Clinical Genetics Division in the Department of Pediatrics and Human Development as a lab manager for CAP-accredited DNA and Microarray laboratories. I received my Bachelor of Science degree from MSU in 2009.
