I graduated from Texas A&M University with a degree in Microbiology. I have been involved in vaccine development for neglected tropical diseases at UCSD, TSRI, and BCM. Prior to joining the program I had been developing preclinical mouse models for invasive bladder cancer in Dr. Phillip Palmbos’s lab at the University of Michigan.
