About

I am currently a graduate research assistant in the Folimonova lab studying Citrus tristeza virus. Prior to studying plant pathology, I graduated in the Spring of 2020 to earn a B.S. in Biochemistry form the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. I then moved from Nebraska to Florida to begin my PhD in the Fall of 2020. I look forward to learning more about CTV and finding new questions to ask about this virus.
