Profile I’m a dynamic bioinformatician passionate about genomics, phylogenomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metagenomics, with a special focus on mosquitoes and vector biology. I excel at analyzing and visualizing complex biological data, particularly for vector-borne diseases and pathogens like SARS-CoV-2. Proficient in R, Python, and Linux/Unix, I’m comfortable navigating high-performance computing (HPC) and cloud platforms (Globus, Vula). As a Research and Teaching Assistant, I love breaking down bioinformatics challenges and driving innovative research. Why It’s Exciting My work dives into the microscopic world of mosquitoes and vectors, using bioinformatics to combat diseases and solve mysteries. From decoding resistance in bacteria carried by mosquitoes to identifying humans through microbial traces, I’m passionate about leveraging genomics and machine learning to protect public health and advance science—one mosquito at a time!
