I am a Marine Biologist with a passion for molecular biology, focusing on bioinformatics for omics data.

My research interests include learning & memory, aging, sex-specific molecular differences, exercise, epigenetics, and transcriptomics.

Here at UAB, I work to define conspecific sexual differences in molecular signatures, primarily transcription, that may influence heterogeneity in aging across multiple taxa. I then use those data to investigate ubiquitous and sex-specific molecular signatures that are shared across multiple species of the Animal Kingdom.

When I am not in the throes of research I also adjunct multiple courses here at UAB, teaching all levels of students from freshmen to graduates. Teaching is a passion of mine, and on any given semester, you may catch me adjuncting Biology’s Guide to Surviving Stress, Introduction to Human Physiology, Biol Data Interpretation & Analysis, or Functional Genomics.
