• Ph.D. Candidate

  • Aug 2013 - Nov 2018

  Dissertation title: Novel Cancer Therapeutics from Bench to Bedside. Performed oncology small-molecule drug discovery & development research at both the preclinical & clinical trial levels. An industry-focused, interdisciplinary thesis project which highlighted the fundamentals of the drug development process:-Utilized two different screening approaches (in silico virtual drug design & virtual high-throughput screening) for the discovery and development of promising small-molecule lead compounds.-Elucidated novel mechanism of HDAC-dependent angiogenesis and metastasis in triple negative breast cancer.-Evaluated depressive metrics in ongoing clinical trial assessing utility of HDAC inhibitor belinostat in glioblastoma (GBM) treatment (ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT02137759).

• Laboratory Instructor: BIO141/142L

  • Aug 2017 - May 2018

  Instructor for year-long introduction to biology/research undergraduate laboratory course at Emory to 24 students. This course places a heavy emphasis on experimental design and execution, primary literature review, effective verbal and nonverbal communication, and development as a young scientist. Responsible for creating/developing quizzes and lectures and grading.

• Graduate Student

  • Jun 2014 - Aug 2016

  Performed in silico and in vitro research in a highly interdisciplinary group comprised of computational chemists, organic chemists, and cancer researchers in the development of a novel generation of small-molecule aromatase inhibitors (AIs) for postmenopausal breast cancer. Via Schrodinger Maestro/Glide computational software, I generated chemical scaffolds supportive of aromatase inhibition; following subsequent synthesis, I then tested these compounds in several screening protocols.

• Peer Tutor

  • Aug 2014 - May 2016

  Tutored and mentored first year Pharmacology PhD students in the following courses: Principles of Pharmacology I/II, Drug Metabolism & Toxicology.

• Graduate Teaching Assistant
