About Me
I'm a researcher and former editor with a dual career in science and publishing. Most recently I'm back to research and am currently a Research Assistant in the Dartmouth GCLP Antibody Laboratory under the direction of Dr. Margaret Ackerman. We are part of the Thayer School of Engineering with the goal of using high-throughput tools to evaluate the antibody response in disease states. See more about the Ackerman lab. My skills include both molecular biology techniques and protein chemistry applications, as well as writing, editing, and communications.
Below are images of from my previous work in the Biological Sciences at Dartmouth with Professor Patrick Dolph, including Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FESEM) imaging of a Drosophila melanogaster eye; sections showing the full eye and a closer view of the internal structures; and finally rat neurons stained with a calcium-related antibody that is involved in our Alzeheimer's research. See more about Professor Dolph's research in my Lab Life blog!

And my other life, as an editor, produced these amazing books:
