Research and Personal Interests

I am interested in tailoring and characterizing polymeric biomaterials for use in understanding cell material interactions for regenerative medicine applications. Outside of research I enjoy solo travel and trying new foods. One of my goals is to travel to every continent and use cuisine to develop a deeper understanding of the cultures in our world. I also enjoy spending time with my family and watching random documentaries.
