I am currently a first-year graduate student pursuing an Ph.D. in Chemistry. Some research areas of interest include chemical/structural biology, protein – ligand docking/modeling, drug design and STEM education. I graduated from the University of Richmond in 2011 with a Bachelor of Science in Chemistry and from Union University in 2015 with a Masters in Urban Education. For the past 8 years, I taught high school chemistry and math.
