biochemistry, physics (m. art history) student at
utsa. previously designer-developer. currently helping out with biochemical and structural mechanism research, but more interested in computational physical biochemistry. some
research i've been following regards predicting the kinetics of complex
protein folding mechanisms by modeling the electrostatics of
biomolecules. outside of that, i teach general chemistry, design learning systems to help students succeed, and run outreach experiments for the community.
what are my long-term goals?
i plan to pursue an md-phd in computational and structural biochemistry. my goal is to bridge protein dynamics research with translational medicine, especially in trauma care, where biochemical insight can sharpen rapid clinical decision-making.
