About Me

I enjoy gardening, traveling, and going to different restaurants. I especially love ramen restaurants.

Research Interests

I am interested in exploring lipedemic adipose tissue. Specifically, I'd like to determine the role of vasculature in interstitial fluid flow and its effects on the adipocytes in lipedema.

My Favorite Fun FAT Fact

Working out or losing weight only reduces the size of fat cells (as opposed to getting rid of them!)
