I was born and raised in Richmond, VA and went to school in Harrisonburg, VA (James Madison University). I am passionate about science and technology. Currently, I am working as a scientist of Next Generation Sequencing at MilliporeSigma. My job is Study Management of GMP Sequencing Studies. I love my job! I hang out with a lot of science nerds. I am a science and tech geek myself. I currently picking up programming (R and Python) to further my understanding of data science. I do not like pushy people.
