  My work is focused on determining the mechanisms of genomic instability in repetitive coding regions and the effects of this variation on protein function. In my current project, I am utilizing genetic and biochemical techniques to investigate the effects of protein repeat variation on the prion-forming transcription factor Azf1p in budding yeast.

  Under Dr. Gregory Ferguson, I utilized ellipsometric and electrochemical techniques to study the behavior of gold-oxide layers formed with oxygen plasma. I participated in weekly group meetings to discuss results and plan future experiments and wrote two formal research papers per semester. My research culminated in a short thesis presented to a general audience in May 2016.

  Over the course of two summers, I conducted a study of materials that are used to wrap production equipment that is sterilized and wiped down as it is transported into production suites. Through experimentation, I evaluated the permeability of the wrapping materials to disinfectant and the risk associated with each piece of equipment. In order to promote sterility assurance, I collaborated with suppliers and the affected departments to develop and implement several alternative wrapping procedures. Show less
