I am a biomedical engineering graduate from Rowan University pursuing further research opportunities. Currently, I'm enrolled in Rowan's pharmaceutical sciences program as a graduate student research fellow. My current research involves fabricating nanofibers from natural proteins and polysaccharides to serve as a biomaterial scaffold for biomedical applications (ie; tissue engineering, drug delivery). Special interests include tissue engineering, biomaterials, biophysics, and immunology. I'm particularly interested in understanding and exploiting material properties for developing new therapeutics.
