Student Manager
Washington and Lee University Help Desk
The University Help Desk was comprised of students that were responsible for troubleshooting and repairing the computers of the faculty and student body. As the student manager, I was responsible for performing all the duties of a technician, as well as training student employees on the University's computer systems and on new troubleshooting techniques required to repair and optimize said computers. I was also responsible for scheduling all student employees and interviewing new applicants.

Medical Sciences - Immunology and Microbiology
As a member of Dr. Clayton Mathews lab, I investigated the molecular mechanism and genetic determinants of how Idd22 protects against the development of Type 1 Diabetes. We believe that Idd22 was acting to prevent the trafficking of diabetogenic CTLs to the pancreatic islet.
Washington and Lee University
Biochemistry
At Washington and Lee I studied Biochemistry, and spent a semester in the lab of Dr. Erich Uffelman, where I worked on characterizing the iron-insertion step of the sythesis of an iron containing tetra-amido-macrocyclic ligand that can be used as a catalyst in a number of industrial reactions.
