Advisor: Patrick G. Harran• Investigated the mechanism of the photorearrangement of [8]-2,6-pyridinophane N-oxide. • Synthesized (+)-marineosin A as well as novel prodiginine compounds used for mechanistic studies and comparative biological testing.• Developed methods for the synthesis of OFCP-derived macrobicycles using small molecular inserts as well as sidechain-initiated cascades.• Computationally determined the ability of OFCP-derived macrobicycles to mimic protein-protein mediating loop types.• Experimentally validated computational models of OFCP-derived macrobicycle loop mimics.• Worked to complete the first laboratory synthesis of the natural product JBIR-141: a potent inhibitor of FoxO3a transcriptional activity.

Advisor: Elena Galoppini• Continued in my work pertaining to the synthesis of molecular anchors incorporated into ruthenium polypyridyl “star” complexes used for the functionalization of TiO2 semiconductor nanoparticles in dye-sensitized solar cells.
