Microbiology

Clinical diagnostics, pathogen identification, and antimicrobial resistance research across hospital and translational settings.

Bioinformatics

Computational modeling, molecular dynamics, and data analysis for understanding resistance, persistence, and host-pathogen interactions.

Research Communication

Writing, public science communication, and collaborative work focused on making complex findings accessible and actionable.

Current focus

Welcome to my personal research hub. I am a Molecular Microbiologist recognized as an EB-1A recipient for my work in clinical diagnostics and pathogen research.

Based in Jersey City, NJ, I combine laboratory insight with computational analysis to study bacterial pathogens, resistance patterns, and molecular interactions.

Vision Statement

“In the modern era of microbiology, the microscope is no longer our only lens. By integrating computational data analysis with molecular techniques, we can decode pathogen behavior at a scale that was previously unimaginable.”
