About

I am a computational biologist with a PhD in biostatistics. While I generally work with genomics data, I am currently on sabbatical while I try to transition back to women’s health research and seeking short-term statistics contract or consulting roles. I am an expert R user, an excellent communicator, and skilled statistician, and would love to take on general data science and data visualization projects outside of my biotech/genomics wheelhouse.
