Research Interests
After receiving my Bachelor's of Science in Microbiology from UC Davis with a research focus on immunology and disease biology, I am delighted to have the opportunity to apply and expand this knowledge through my work on T cell-based immunotherapies in the Okada lab. In the future, I plan to pursue a PhD in cancer immunology as a foundation for a career in cancer drug and immunotherapy development.
Other Interests: Outside of lab, I enjoy playing classical piano, making espresso, and going on hiking and skiing adventures.
