Biography

I recently finished my M.S. in Molecular and Cellular Biology at the University of Arizona with Dr. Carol Gregorio as my thesis advisor, studying mechanisms of cardiovascular disease. Before this, I receieved my B.S. also in Molecular and Cellular Biology from the University of Arizona, graduating summa cum laude.

I began my time at Roche as an intern with the Personalized Healthcare Solutions (PHCS) marketing team, where, working with Adrianna Shen and Francisco Ayerbe, I helped make data-driven decisions about the commercialization of the TROP2 AI-driven diagnostic algorithm.

Since my internship, I've continued on with Roche as a Junior Market Researcher & Data Analyst on the Global Market Insights team, supporting the oncology tissue diagnostics division. I led the transition of our annual market report to a fully automated, Snowflake-driven pipeline, and I'm now working to grow beyond the technical side - developing the strategic and business insight needed to help guide business decisions through global market research

Outside of work, I am active in scientific education. I appeared on KXCI 91.3’s “Thesis Thursday” segment, I mentored high school students as a coordinator in the STAR Lab throughout grad school, and I love getting to talk about science to students from kindergarten to high school!
