Research Summary

I am a PhD student in the UCSF/UC Berkeley Bioengineering graduate program. I am fascinated by the chemistry observed in nature’s enzymes. My research aims to better understand how we can engineer enzymes to produce novel chemicals. Of particular interest to me are polyketide synthases (PKSs) due to their modularity and their remarkable diversity in nature.
