Research interests:
My research focuses on the application of sequence defined polypeptoids in photoresists, and gaining a fundamental understanding of the impacts of sequence on structure and behavior.
Bio:
I grew up in Byron, Minnesota and attended college at the University of Minnesota – Twin Cities. At the UMN, I originally entered for biomedical engineering but switched to materials science and engineering, as it aligned more with my interests. As an undergraduate researcher, I worked in the labs of Professors Timothy Lodge and Frank Bates studying methacrylate-based polymer oil additives. In my free time, I enjoy running, hiking, cooking, and playing video games.
