I am a research scientist in the W.M. Keck Center for Nanoscale Optofluidics at UCSC. My current work focuses on the incorporation of nanoscale elements into optofluidic devices to increase their sensitivity and reliability.

My previous work included postdoctoral research in the NanoBio Group at USC and in the Center for Integrated Nanomechanical Systems at UC Berkeley. My graduate research in the UC Berkeley Physics Department focused on carbon nanotubes as key elements in nanoscale electronics and nanoelectromechanical systems.
