Since joining Johns Hopkins University in 2014, I’ve had the privilege of serving as an Assistant and Grants and Contracts Analyst under the esteemed Neurogastroenterologist, Dr. Pankaj Pasricha. This role enriched my expertise in research funding and administrative functions. In 2022, I transitioned to the Whiting School of Engineering where I continue my contributions as a Grants and Contracts Analyst for NeuroTech Harbor, a leading initiative in neurotechnology. Parallel to my professional trajectory, I hold an Associate of Arts degree in Psychology and am currently advancing towards my Bachelor’s, offering a unique intersection of human cognition insights within the technical landscape. Beyond my professional and academic endeavors, I am a proud parent to two wonderful children: Parker and Ella. They are the joys of my life and, undoubtedly, my most cherished commitment. Whether it’s attending baseball games, gymnastics, school events, or simply enjoying a quiet evening at home, my time with them is precious. They remind me daily of the beauty of life’s simple moments and the importance of cherishing every second.
