Who I am

I'm a PhD student in bioengineering at UCSF-UC Berkeley, working in a cellular engineering lab where I use computational biology and optical microscopy to explore how cells work. Outside the lab, you'll find me on two wheels - whether I'm exploring Bay Area streets, bikepacking through new terrain, or leading Bike and Brew, a weekly Tuesday evening ride to different bars and breweries around the city. I travel whenever I can, and through it all, my camera comes with me. Photography has been my first love, and this website is where I share that work - from client portrait and event sessions (supporting this poor grad student!) to personal projects, travel stories, and reflections on science and discovery. Thanks for being here.
