About
I am a dedicated Scientist-I at Garuda Therapeutics, where I specialize in computational biology and genomics within the R&D department. My work primarily revolves around developing and optimizing pipelines for variant calling using Strelka2 and GATK4 with Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) to identify oncogenes in human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). This involves extensive work in the qualification and validation of these pipelines for regulatory filings, as well as leveraging databases such as ClinVar, COSMIC, and DepMap to craft targeted oncogenes panels for deep sequencing. I also apply Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) for downstream sequencing to validate CRISPR knockouts, including the identification and validation of CRISPR off-targets using techniques like rhAMPseq and Induce-seq. Additionally, my expertise extends to single-cell sequencing analysis and understanding structural variants with Optical Genome Mapping (Bionano). Prior to joining Garuda Therapeutics, I completed a postdoctoral fellowship in computational biology at Pennsylvania State University, where I honed my skills in identifying climate-adaptive variants and conducted Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) to uncover resistance genes against parasites and other stressors. My academic journey began at the University of Vermont, where I explored abiotic stress resistance genes using transcriptomics and developed a robust understanding of RNA-seq data analysis, from assembly to gene annotation. My work is driven by a passion for leveraging computational and genomics tools to address pressing challenges in biology and healthcare, combining my rigorous academic training with a practical, solution-oriented approach to research and development.

About
A postdoctoral research scientist with over 9 years experience in bacterial genomics, microbiology, bioinformatics and antimicrobial resistance research. I’m seeking a Research Scientist or Epidemiologist role at public health genomics laboratories and I am the perfect fit for these roles because I have the following skills: molecular biology, research & development, strategic planning, project management, documentation, outbreak investigation, and cross-functional collaboration skills. I have leveraged my skills to work in a collaborative team-oriented environment to accomplish project goals related to examining the evolution of antimicrobial resistance as evidenced by over 7 national and international collaborations including the New York State Department of Health. I am also a proactive problem-solver adopting innovative and scientific thinking strategies in molecular biology to fulfill project objectives resulting in scientific discoveries including uncovering 1 novel hotspot for the dissemination of resistance in bacteria. I have gained mentorship expertise in promoting data reproducibility, and innovative research methodology in antimicrobial resistance research as evidenced by mentoring 10 professionals on evolutionary genomics, epidemiological statistics, and antimicrobial stewardship. I have also worked collaboratively with a team to apply pathogen genomics, bioinformatics, and leadership skills as demonstrated by working with over 10 highly collaborative teams including the Africa CDC. In addition, I have the following qualifications: Cross-functional collaborator and experience elucidating methods and frequencies of horizontal gene transfer and antimicrobial resistance spread in bacterial species, as demonstrated by 26 peer-reviewed publications including 1 in Nature Microbiology. Experience in leading and managing project details and tasks as evidenced by over 20 projects in pathogen genomics, epidemiology, antimicrobial resistance surveillance, and global health. Astute communication skills in bacterial epidemiology and antimicrobial resistance research resulting in 20 presentations and 6 travel awards to deliver such presentations, including the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. I want to serve an organization that prizes community, collaboration and humility among its employees. I’m excited to be on a team built around impact, innovation and a strong, positive reputation. I know I will thrive at a company where responsibility is valued, as well as self-improvement and time-management. I want to be a part of an organization that infuses growth into their brand, culture and market and who I can help make a difference in the world.
