Welcome


I am a biological anthropologist specializing in primate functional morphology, evolutionary biomechanics, and evolutionary developmental biology. My work explores how skeletal structures adapt and develop across the lifespan, driven by a commitment to rigorous comparative methodologies and the holistic development of the next generation of researchers. I am using 3D quantitative methods, including microCT imaging, along with VGStudio Max, 3D Slicer, and MeshLab. I worked with museum specimens and performed gross visual assessments of pathological conditions on human remains as well. I dedicate my spare time to creating biological anthropology materials for public science engagement.

Leadership and Service

I have been a member of a student organization called SKY for 2 years. This year, I am president, and we are organizing our flagship event, the SKY Happiness Retreat. It is a comprehensive well-being and resilience program designed to help students, faculty, and staff achieve their fullest potential.
