PhD student
I completed my undergraduate degree in Bioengineering at Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore, where I worked in the How Lab to develop a CRISPR/Cas-based diagnostic assay for resource-constrained settings. I then pursued a Master’s degree in Life Sciences Engineering at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland. During this time, I interned at HemostOD, where I engineered platelets as vehicles for delivering therapeutics to cancer cells. Most recently, I conducted my Master’s thesis in the Rashidian Lab at Harvard Medical School, developing a protein therapy to regenerate memory CAR-T cells in-vivo. At the Sgourakis Lab, I am excited to combine the science of MHC peptide presentation and T cell profiling in the context of cancer and transplantation. Outside the lab, I enjoy traveling, hiking, cooking, stargazing, discovering new restaurants, and most importantly, spending time with family and friends.
