I occupy myself with ribosome biogenesis, medicine, anthropology, informatics, and global health. I am a devout Christian. In June 2007 I was part of a Human Rights Delegation to Guatemala with Global Youth Connect. That Fall semester I studied in Cuba, and conducted an ethnographic study at a walk-in clinic in downtown Havana. In association with The Archimedes Movement I occasionally give lectures on the US health system for community groups or nursing students. When I graduate from Lewis & Clark College in May (biochemistry & molecular biology), I will work in East Africa as the R&D director for FrontlineSMS:Medic. Eventually I hope to attend medical school. I enjoy blogging, tweeting, and filling my pensieve with inklings of my dreams.
