I graduated from St. Kate's in Minnesota with a Biology Major and Longevity and Aging Minor and am currently a first year, rotating student in the Cell and Developmental Biology PhD program at UCLA. In the Coller lab, I am studying the role of cellular quiescence in the uterus and its dysregulation in disease. My goal is to study the etiology of and potential therapeutics for diseases of the female reproductive tract. Outside of the lab, I enjoy hiking with my partner and our dog, going to the beach, and watching TV!
