                Biography
            I have been completing research on influenza A virus and its interaction with the human immune response for over 12 years. At WCUPA, I have mentored 12 research students (undergraduate and graduate) in the past 4 years. I currently teach Intro Microbiology, Virology, and Immunology courses.
