About

I am a second year MS student in Computer Science at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities (UMN). I am currently working as a Graduate Research Assistant in the Hulleman Lab at the University of Minnesota, Medical School. My research focuses on analyzing retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cell images from porcine and mice eyes. I am currently examining and quantifying deposits in these images, contributing to our understanding of retinal diseases, particularly age-related macular degeneration (AMD). I have also taken on the development and maintenance of the lab’s site.
