I have a strong interest in Physical and Biochemistry and their applications in modern technology. I am a Chemist/ Materials Scientist with SURVICE Engineering. I recently obtained my Master's in Physical Chemistry at the University of Delaware and I obtained my Bachelors at the University of Maryland Baltimore County in Chemistry. During my undergraduate years I performed research in the lab of Dr. Michael Summers where we studied the structure-function relationship of HIV-1 RNA to better understand its replication cycle. I also interned at Rutgers where I studied the data obtained at higher spinning speeds for ssNMR on the GB1 model protein to test new capabilities. During my graduate years I performed research with Dr. Tatyana Polenova studying the assembly of the HIV-1 capsid conical core in order to push the method of ssNMR further and better understand how HIV-1 matures and protects its genetic content.Some relevant poster presentations are listed below:Garrett Freeman, Samar Behdin, Xinmei Dong, Michael F.
